Wade's Desk
I have done a new install of Windows XP with SP3 updates. I've installed
IIS from my Windows XP installation disk with FP 2000 Server Extensions.
The web server is working and I can access it by typing http://localhost
in my web browser. When I try to open the local server in FP 2002 or FP
2000, I'm prompted for a Username and Password. When I type in either my
Administrator with admin password or Wade with user password, it is
rejected. I'm able to open my remotely hosted web sites with no
problems. I've also tried using the static IP address instead of
"localhost". Does anyone have an idea why my username and password is
not being accepted? I do not remember having this problem on previous
installations (though I have not hosted any webs locally (on my own
machine) for several years. I've tested this on two different WinXP Pro
machines with the same results. I've disabled Windows firewall with the
same results. I can not seem to come up with a username/password
combination that works. Help! -wade
