I have setup a database in S2K which I want to access using the HTTP/XML access feature. I have created the proper virtual directory to do so with Windows Integrated Auhentication and it works fine from IE as a URL query.

I want to be able to do such a URL query from an ASP script to retrieve XML for XSL formatting. However, when I use ServerXMLHTTP to access the URL, I get Access Denied errors.

I assume this is because the query is being run as IUSR and the authentication is failing. I have tried to use "Always log on as" to specify a user to logon as, but this fails and I wonder if I am setting up the login/user improperly.

Could someone tell me how to set up a user in S2K in order to access a DB via HTTP without using challenge/response? Does IIS need to be configured specially?

Is is possible to do such URL queries from ASP?

Thanks for your help! This has really been annoying me.
