Securing IIS folders

Hi All;

I have a production server (win 2003 server) where I host my work in progress for clients to access and view. Some clients have complained about security so I have tried to implement security on each of my client folders in iis.

I found a site that says I should disable anonymous access to the folder I wish to secure via IIS, and then create a new user and give them view/execute rights on that folder.

This worked fine, however I have now noticed that if I log in to one account/folder, I then have the ability to log onto the rest. :-( Which kind of makes sense.

What is the best way I should go about securing each folder individually and granting access to specific users only?

I have quite a few folders, so looking for the best and fastest way possible.

Any and all help will be greatly appreciated!

Regards;

Sean. [peace]
