Hi,
I'm just getting started with ASP.Net and have run into a security
issue and I am hoping someone on this NG can help shed some light on
this problem. My Google searches turned up numerous hits but nothing
seemed relevant to my particular problem.
I recently installed the QuickStart application that comes with Net
Framework SDK 1.1. I can access the application using
http://localhost/QuickStart without any problem. However, if I try to
use http://mycomputername/Quickstart, I get a 403.6 error, Forbidden
IP. The IISHelp application is also installed, but I can access that
app with either localhost or mycomputername. The Directory Security
settings are the same for both apps. Why would I get a security error
when using mycomputername to access QuickStart?
I am running Windows XP Pro with it's IIS on an intranet domain. The
button to edit IP addresses under Directory Security is greyed out,
but I understand this is normal with the XP Pro version of IIS. I
don't thin the button being greyed out has any relevance to the
problem. However, other similar discussions refer to this button to
correct the security settings for IIS on Windows Server.
Thanks for any help or information you can extend.
