I am running IIS on an XP Pro development workstation. As local user I can publish sites to no problem and view them. However I'm no IIS expert and I need to find out how to add permissions to allow another domain user access to the webserver to view webpages.

I've already allowed port 80 on firewall but user is now presented with a log on window when trying to access the webpage. Do I need to add the domain user to a particular local group or add permissions to the virtual directory? A step by step would be useful.

By the way, Integrated Authentication is only methoid of authentication, anon access is not allowed.

Thanks,
Jamie
 
if using integrated authentication then the user and user's computer need access.

Domain\UserAccount: Make sure user account has proper NTFS permissions to the directories on the web-server.

ComputerAccounts: Both the IIS server and the User's computer must both be members of the same domain, or a domain with proper trust set-up.
