How do I set the authentication mode to Windows in asp?

I found some code on the Internet that I have modified for my needs and
it works nicely from a localhost, but not when it is sitting on our
intranet server.

I believe the reason is that the instruction

<authenticati on mode="Windows" />

is missing.

In asp.net I would put this instruction in web.config, but since the
code is in an earlier version of asp (the code is at
http://www.hypergurl.com/verticaltext.html) I don't know how to
include it.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Jan Nordgreen

This newsgroup id for classic asp. Dotnet is a different technology
altogether. You would be better off having a chat with the chaps over
at microsoft.publi c.dotnet.framew ork.aspnet.

Mike, thanks for your reply.

I think the code I got is in classic asp, so I guess this is the right
group.

This is set using IIS Manager. There are no config files in classic asp
where this can be set.

Hi, I've created a little site for my sports club. In the root folder there are pages that are viewable by every anonymous user but at a certain subfolder my administration pages should be protected by forms authentication.

When VS.NET creates a web.config file it writes a default <authentication mode="Windows" /> entry. Let me see if I got this right... 1.) It does so because I am running locally and my local Windows user account is being used by VS.NET leaving me a bit confused as when an application is run locally I am not challenged for credentials even if I request the application from a separate instance of IE.
