Our office has recently setup a very small intranet web that will be used by maybe 3 to 4 personnel at any time. We are using a program called ARCIMS to setup the webpages and are using IIS 5.1 on an XP Pro machine. I have setup up Read Only permissions for the personnel allowed at this site using AD. We all login to the same domain through a Windows 2003 server on which the computer where the web resides is also a member.

Now my problem is when I have "everyone" listed as read only, obviously everyone can read the site. When I take "everyone" off the permissions, it asks for a PW. It does not take our domain PW. I tried adding "Authenticated Users" to the permissions and then everyone could read the site again. I am missing one step here. Can anyone help me? Thanks.
 
Explain what behaviour you want to happen, and I can help you figure out how to do it. Are you trying to limit what users can see the website?
 
I only want the group that I have created with a "read only" permission to have access to the site.

TIA
 
I figured this out. It was a combination of things. I almost had the right permissions on the web folder. First I removed the "everyone" permission. Then I had to go to Web Sites Properties under IIS then Directory Security then Edit. Then I unchecked all except for Integrated Windows authentication. It worked like a charm.

I am posting this in case someone else has this problem.
Thanks for your time.
