Security issue when publishing

G

Hi all,

I have a folder for the company Intranet on the a Windows 2003 server.
A security group has full rights to this folder to make changes with
FrontPage 2003. They are then supposed to be able to publish this
website to another folder on the server, this is where users access the
Intranet.

I am in the Administrators group and can do this no problems. Users in
the security group get prompted for a username and password, even
though the group has full rights to the publish directory. If I put in
my username and password at this prompt the website is published.

Is there anything else that I should do other than give the security
frull access to the publish directory? Anything in IIS?

Any help would be very much appreciated.

Thanks.

The problem is that you have set permissions outside of the FP extensions directly on the folder.
The FP user must have full rights.
