Hi,
I'm a newbie starting up with ASP.NET,
and I'm getting off to a wonderful start
- and when I tell you "wonderful" I'm being sarcastic.
My OS is Win 2000 SP4 - and I'm using IE6.
I've gotten IIS installed, along with the .NET framework.
When I try to load a page in my webroot, I get a prompt
for a network login:
================================================== ====
Enter Network Password
------------------------------------------------------
Site: localhost
User name: [ EDIT BOX ]
Password: [ EDIT BOX ]
Domain: [ EDIT BOX ]
[] Save this password in your password list.
OK cancel
================================================== ====
My code is about as simple as it can get:
===============================================
<%@ Page Language="C#" %>
<script runat="server">
void page_load(object obj, EventArgs e)
{ lblMessage.Text = "Hello World";
}
</script>
<html><body>
<asp:Label id="lblMessage" runat="server"/>
</body></html>
===============================================
... right from the book.
I put the file into my webroot directory:
C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\
... and this URL into the IE6 address bar:
http://localhost/HelloWorld01.aspx
I've also registered ASP.NET with my IIS server,
as instructed by Gregory:
***************************
1. Open a command prompt
2. Type cd %WINDIR%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322
for 1.1 Framework (assume you are using the latest)
3. Type aspnet_regiis /i
That should register ASP.NET with your IIS server.
4. Try your page again.

I was having a problem with access permissions after doing that,
and I found the following MS KB article:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/316721
I did the following, as instructed by the article:
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
RESOLUTION
To add read, execute, and list access for the ASPNET account
on the root Web site or on any virtual directory, follow these steps:
1. In Windows Explorer, browse to the folder that contains
the root Web site (which is C:\Inetpub\Wwwroot by default)
or the virtual directory.
2. Right-click the folder, and then click Properties.
3. On the Security tab, click Add.
4. Type ComputerName\ASPNET (for example, on a computer named Webdev,
type Webdev\ASPNET), and then click OK.
5. Allow the following permissions for the ASPNET account:
• Read & Execute
• List Folder Contents
• Read
6. Click OK to close the Properties dialog box and to save the changes.
NOTE: You do not need to perform these steps if the Everyone group or the
Users group has read access to the root Web site or virtual directory.
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
I've also given the same permissions to the "Internet Guest Account (IUSR_BOFFO-1A)"
- I still have the same problem.
What happens now, when I load the address in the address bar of IE6
(
http://localhost/HelloWorld01.aspx), then click on GO,
I get that box prompting me for a username, password, and domain.
Apparently, I have a permissions issue. I am logged in as administrator,
and my C: drive is accessible. Under the "Security" tab for Properties
for Inetpub, for my "Internet Guest Account," the "Allow" boxes
for [read & execute],[list folder contents], and [Read] are checked
- BUT they are greyed out - I cannot clear them - and nothing else
is checked.
This is true for the "ASP.NET Machine Account (BOFFO-1A\ASPNET)",
as well as for the "Internet Guest Account (IUSR_BOFFO-1A)"
Now that I look further, the same thing is the case for every folder
in the root that I examined.
I have the .NET Framework 1.1 configuration tool in Administrative tools,
along with the Wizards. I have opened the configuration tool,
but I have no idea as to what I'm looking at.
I cleaned out the cache for the browser ...
C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\
(for IE6)
... and it still doesn't work.
So this is going just "wonderfully". :-(
Does anyone have any idea as to why I'm getting that stupid network login prompt?
... or what it wants in the way of a username/password/domain?
Thanks In Advance!
