Script access - IIS 6
iis security:
I am trying to execute a python script on IIS 6 as follows: Anonymous access http://cvstest/viewcvs and http://cvstest/viewcvs/viewcvs.cgi Both of the above work. I have made viewcvs.cgi a default page for the directory. Authenticated access: Removed anonymous access, added ACL for user group. viewcvs.cgi remains a default page for the directory. http://cvstest/viewcvs presents authentication dialog and works. http://cvstest/viewcvs/viewcvs.cgi does not present authentication dialog. Returns: ******************************** CGI Error The specified CGI application misbehaved by not returning a complete set of HTTP headers. ********************************* The script is unchanged in all cases. Only the NTFS permissions are changed -- Thanks in advance.... ------------------------------------------ Mark Hildreth IT Response, Inc. 205 Rustic Place San Ramon, CA 94583 mark@ITResponse.com (925) 828-7650 (925) 699-6800 (cell)
How did you configure authenticated access (what sort of authentication). Are you running with a custom AppPoolIdentity. What are the ACLs on the accessed resources. How is .cgi scriptmapped (does it have ScriptEngine/File not Found options). If you configure viewcvs.cgi as a DefaultDoc (is it the only one?), both URLs are the same. The first one will cause IIS to send a courtesy redirect to http://cvstest/viewcvs/ back to the client, and when the client requests this URL behind-the-scenes, IIS would resolve / to /viewcvs.cgi and execute http://cvstest/viewcvs/viewcvs.cgi using the ScriptEngine configured for the ..cgi Scriptmap -- the same as if you made a direct request to it. I am therefore thinking of what would cause the IIS resolution and re-execution to fail, and I'm looking at the request up to the ScriptEngine. -- //David This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights. // [quoted text, click to view] "Mark Hildreth" <mhildreth@sbcglobal.net> wrote in message news:en4FMI$VDHA.2248@TK2MSFTNGP10.phx.gbl...

I have used Basic and Windows Integrated Authentication. They behave differently. They both behave the same for the originally described problem. After using the http://cvstest/viewcvs/ URL and successfully authenticating, there are links in the format http://cvstest/viewcvs/viewcvs.cgi/modulename. If I've authenticated with Basic, these links work, with Integrated they do not. By the way, viewcvs is a virtual directory on the same machine. App Pool Identity is Network Service. I've tried local system as well. ACL is Local Administrators Group, CVS Users Group and SYSTEM all have full control. Do know the answer to "How is cgi scriptmapped?" viewcvs.cgi is the only default document.

If you make requests of the form http://cvstest/viewcvs/viewcvs.cgi/modulename , does that work? Namely, does this CGI depend on PATH_INFO or not? I am suspecting it does. I tried to duplicate it by doing the following: 1. I set a Scriptmap of .cgi to C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\MyCGI.EXE (avoiding any ACL issues) 2. I set DefaultDoc on / to be test.cgi 3. I created a file test.cgi so that DefaultDoc works I made a request to http://localhost/ and http:/localhost/test.cgi under anonymous, basic, and NTLM, and all passed (they invoked MyCGI.EXE to return content). I am using default ACLs, default AppPoolId of Network Service. I do not immediately know what is wrong in your scenario, but if you can get it working in the default case, we can work on lockdown. I believe the Authentication issue with NTLM is separate from the "Bad Headers" issue, so let's take it one at a time. Let's get the files working to not return "Bad Headers" first. NTLM is a connection-based protocol, so I want to ask you whether the CGI works with keep-alive correctly or not. -- //David This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights. // [quoted text, click to view] "Mark Hildreth" <mhildreth@sbcglobal.net> wrote in message news:uMxwr4DWDHA.2316@TK2MSFTNGP09.phx.gbl...

If you reset ACLs to allow anonymous access and everything works (even for the "Authenticated") case, then I question whether you are actually authenticating. I can note that the default web directories that IIS sets up serves as an illustration of what would work. I could not reproduce your claims using ACLs from those default web directories. You should see whether it works for you as well before touching ACLs. The basics of ACLs come down to this: 1. The Resource (like the script itself) and the ScriptMap Engine (and associated resources) must be accessible to the remote authenticated user 2. The remote authenticated user is the configured Anonymous User (default is IUSR) for anonymous and the logged in user for any other authentication protocol. 3. IIS_WPG should have list ACL on the resource to be able to cache it. On a DC, where IIS_WPG is not allowed, the resource must be list ACL'd to individual members of the IIS_WPG group. In the end, you just match the ACLs on the resources with the remote authenticated users that need access.. You should see at least the above basics if you look at \inetpub\wwwroot. -- //David This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights. // [quoted text, click to view] "Mark Hildreth" <mhildreth@sbcglobal.net> wrote in message news:uyIayTuWDHA.2444@tk2msftngp13.phx.gbl...

That's ok. There's a bunch of terms that refer to the same thing; sometimes the documentation folks change terminology and create new words for us. Scripts is one of those instances: A Script is a web-accessible resource that is executed by something else to return content (versus executable, which can directly be executed to return content, like a CGI EXE or an ISAPI DLL). Hence, your Python file is a Script, and the Python interpreter EXE is the ScriptEngine that executes the Python file to produce a response. The ScriptEngine can be a CGI EXE (like your Python) or ISAPI DLL (like ASP/ASP.Net). IIS chose file extension as a mean to associate resource type and Script Engine, hence I refer to it as a ScriptMap (or Script Mapping). This mapping is also called Application Mapping by the documentation (who seem to do a search/replace of "Script" with "Application"). -- //David This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights. // [quoted text, click to view] "Mark Hildreth" <mhildreth@sbcglobal.net> wrote in message news:%23f4R6h3WDHA.652@tk2msftngp13.phx.gbl...
I am confused by your use of ScriptMap and ScriptMap Engine. I can find no occurance of these terms in the knowledgebase. What are you referring to here? Thanks...
