IIS and Frontpage Extensions

[Guest]

I have IIS running on a Windows XP PRO Box. It is serving up 5 webpages
currently. I have some users that like to use frontpage extensions. I have
installed front page extensions on the server but they cannot connect to the
server from Frontpage 2000. They keep getting an error that "The folder 'URL'
isn't accessible. The folder may be located in an unavailable location,
protected with a password, or the filemane contains a / or \." Any ideas why
they can't connect?

Based on your question, I suspect that you have already considered this but
have your brought down your windows firewall?

The folder "http://Website" isn't accessible. The folder may be located on
an unavailable volume or protected with a password.

Yes the Windows Firewall is off.

I solved it by removing and reinstalling Frontpage Exnetsions. I thought I
did that allready. Ohh Well.
