The path to the include in the KB article is based on the sample which
Requires a Subweb named logon under the root web as in
http://http://www.dickbrom.com/logon/
That means you should have created a subweb named logon (not a folder
named logon)
- that would have created the required _private folder in the new subweb
That would make the path from a file in your Root web to the subweb
_private folder correct as: /logon/_private/logon.inc
Re read the article to identify which files belong in your root web
http://www.dickbrom.com and which one belong in the Subweb
http://www.dickbrom.com/logon/
Root web - the pages you are trying to protect plus all other pages in the
article except:
the mdb and .inc (in the logon subweb _private folder), and logon .asp in
the logon subweb root

| Thanks Stephan
|
| I called the hosting company and they confirmed they are running a
| windows server and support FP Extensions and ASP programs.
|
| I deleted "logon_page" per your reply.
|
| The second line in the logon.asp contains the following include
statement
| (see below).
| That's why I set up _private in the logon folder.
|
| <!--#include virtual="/logon/_private/logon.inc"-->
|
| I also tried copying the logon.inc and the logon.mdb files into the
_private
| folder in the root directory, but this had no effect.
|
| I also noticed that I have Global.asa in the logon folder.
| Is the right place for it??
|
| The URL is
http://www.dickbrom.com .
| testuser password
|
| I actually get up to the "enter username and password " screen but it
fails
| there.
| The logon.mdb contains one entry as follows
| The UID is testuser and the PASSWORD is password .
|
| I have been working on this for three or four days and would appreciate
any
| help
