I understand, but it is not actually a connection issue. If the applet that
normally appeared asking for username and password would appear, I'm certain that FrontPage would connect to my remote web server. The rub is that the applet never appears to give me the opportunity to type in my username and password. WHAT I REALLY NEED IS A MICROSOFT PERSON WHO KNOWS THE NAME OF THE FILE AND ITS INSTALLED LOCATION ON MY HARD DRIVE SO I CAN VERIFY THAT IT IS THERE and not written ove by the WebPosition install. I've used Synmantec Ghost to restore the machine to it's usable form and it works fine. As soon as I install the WebPosition 3 program, the FrontPage applet for username and password simply stops executing. Thanks, gw "Thomas A.

Call MS Tech Support.
It is a connection issue, as the dialog would not appear unless FP was trying to connect to a location that require a login, and it uses IE connection settings. If there isn't a connection, then you would not see the login dialog. -- ============================================== Thomas A.

First, I'm thankful for your taking the time to enter into this problem!
OK, I'll grant you that it is a "quasi" connection issue. We are getting closer! I don't have a site specific SSL certificate on this domain, but the server secure certificate is "shared" over all Ip's in my Class C to make secure publishing (443) possible. I tried to connect using port 443 and FrontPage does talk to the server because it presents the message "The name of the computer you are connecting to does not match the name ofn the certificate. Do you wish to continue?. (This is the normal response I get before the username/password appears). It is at this point that communication must be stopping as the applet for u/p fails to appear. When it first happened I had my tech people checking extensions, etc. and we determined it was specific to my machine with WebPosition installed. (And again, restoring the box from ghost allows the FrontPage to work properly again) This is comical that the both of us are spending all of these billable minutes debugging 5 year old stuff. I'm just anal about understanding why stuff tops working and why the authors of software always say their code is not the problem (-: "Thomas A.

No.
I just mentioned the 443 information because it tells me that some level of communication is taking place between FrontPage and my IIS server. Again, this machine is a relic, but loaded up with useful tcp and udp protocol programs that back up my XPPro clients. This all started when my normal client box went to the bench for some repairs. I popped WP on the backup box to run a specific report I needed and the fun began. Again, all other TCP progams on the box (secure web mail, Citrix client, Terminal Server client, ftp, on an on work fine.) I truly think First Place uses somehting named fp*.* that matches something Microsoft FrontPage calls fp*.* and the two are colliding. gw "Thomas A.

Since FP uses IE for password management, have you made sure to add your site to the IE trusted zone
Passwords used by FP are "stored" using IE In IE use Tools > Internet Options > Security Click on 'Trusted' and on 'Custom Level' Make sure the selection at the bottom is set to: 'Automatic logon with current username and password' and click OK Click on 'Sites' and add your site URL in the 'Add this Web Site to the Zone', and OK, OK -- _____________________________________________ SBR @ ENJOY (-: [ Microsoft MVP - FrontPage ] "Warning - Using the F1 Key will not break anything!"
