The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

The Grade of the Solution
The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
The Number of Author and Expert Comments
The Number of Experts Contributing
The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

IIS 5.1 Problem with User credentials and/or password authentication

Zone: Microsoft IIS Web Server

Tags: Miicrosoft, IIS, 5.1, You are not authorized to view this page

I am running IIS 5.1 on my home computer: XP Pro SP2, all updates. I seemingly successfully created a virtual server/domain so that I could use my computer as a local host to do some website development. I created a simple webform, .asp page to package up the info and I also created an Access database to receive the information.

The problem: When I try to test my webform by clicking the submit button, my browser goes to load my .asp page and I receive the message "You are not authorized to view this page." It lists the HTTP error 401.1. The Event Viewer records Event ID 100, Source W3SVC and states whatever user I have designated had bad username, password or invalid credentials.

I have set the Directory Security to Anonymous Authentication on all user accounts, I have made the file folder containing the .asp page available for sharing on my network, I have worked with the NTFS file permissions, etc. etc but nothing seems to work.

I thought about changing the User account passwords but I'm not sure necessarly how to do this correctly nor if it will have adverse effects on my computer.

From what I can see, this does not seem to be a complex problem but like everything else, it takes specific knowledge which I obviously lack.

Hopefully this was clear but if not let me know what additional information is needed to resolve this issue.

Thanks,
Max
