Server Sessions and Novell Systems

Hi

I don’t know if anyone has had a similar problem with Novell and IIS, but when a Novell user accesses our website this is what happens:

- User logs into our login.aspx file
- The user details are processed to make sure they match in the database. It is at this stage a session state is added.
- Once they have passed this stage they are passed to intro.aspx where some instructions are given and the user has to click next.
- It is at this stage the user is put straight back to the login page.

IIS logs say nothing apart from the user goes from one page to another and back again. We produce our own logs and they have nothing.

Can anyone help!

Thanks

What authentication info do you have in your web.config?

re: Server Sessions and Novell Systems

It's 'windows' but IIS allows anonymous access. Surly its over-ridden by IIS?

re: Server Sessions and Novell Systems

I think what maybe happening is the anonymous access & DB details allow user to the intro page. Then windows authentication fails when they leave and they are sent back to log on. Suggest test with windows removed.

but surly that would not allow them to access the login page?

one more note to add. Novell runs on windows systems to - it just acts like NT!?
