I first published this problem in the microsoft.public.frontpage.programming
discussion group, but came to realize the problem is more security oriented
than anything else.
Can anyone offer a suggestion to resolve this issue? The problem is occuring
while running Front Page 2003 under XP professional. Some of the files I can
no longer access also occur outside of FrontPage.

I have a number of web sites on the IIS 5.0 server located on my development
workstation. All of a sudden, I can no longer publish any of them from
FrontPage 2003. When I click "File/Publish Web", the "Remote Web Site
Properties" a dialog box opens, I set up the URL for the local server and
depress OK at
which time I get an error message:
"A Web site doesn't exist at http://myserver/myweb/mypage.htm , would you
like FrontPage to create a Web site at that location?"
Clicking "yes" brings me back into a loop to the "Remote Web Site
Properties" box again.
None of this makes sense since the web DOES exist (I can access it from IE
6.0).
At other times, it accepts my command but demands a user name and password.
Even though I am logged as an Administrator, none of my entries work.
Finally, going into IIS, selecting "Server Extensions 2002" and clicking on
"Settings" takes me to:
http://myserver/_sharepoint/fpadmdll.dll?page=genset.htm&port=/LM/W3SVC/1
only to tell me:
"You are not authorized to view this page
You do not have permission to view this page using your current user
account.
Please try the following:
If you have another user account with a higher level of
permission, click
your browser's Back button to try again using that account.
If you believe you should be able to view this page, contact the
Web site administrator"
It sounds like a permission issue, but I am not sure of where to go from
here. I have checked permissions both at the PC level and on IIS and have
tried a number of things without success. Any ideas? Also, my folders do not
show a Security tab when viewed from Windows Explorer; is that normal?
