Is the account (IUSR...) active? I know I remember getting some errors
for the IUSR accts in the Event Log on an IIS server and found that my
cohort had disabled the accounts. Just a thought...

Subject: Securing IIS/5 with ASP
Sensitivity: Confidential

Hello,
        I have a document I've built over the years about securing
IIS/5,
with regards to permissions, etc right down to the file level. This
often
works, except when I get that pesky ASP engine involved. I'm sick of
HTTP/500 errors! I know for a fact the error is with file permissions,
but
I can't pin-point which file(s) are causing it. I've had the
dllhost.exe
keep getting "ACCESS DENIED" (Using NTFileMon from sysinternals.com) on
C:\winnt\system32\<some_file> but...the permissions on that
file/folder/whatever are IUSR/IWAM/SYSTEM (RWX).

        Bottom line, does anyone have a definitive "baseline IIS/5
w/ASP"
security document done I could look over? Just curious - dying to know
what
I'm missing.

?Ralph
