iis security:

I have just installed the Front Page 2002 Server extensions onto my Windows
2000 server platform. I was wanting to fix one problem but created many
others. It has removed the security of all of the individual users from
their directories and when I add them back into the NTFS file system the way
I had them before they now cannot login with Front page and Edit the Web
Page. If I add them to the Authors group it propagated throughout the
entire Web site. Any GURU out there have any tips for me to be able to
solve this?

Solve what? :-)
You haven't told us what you actually want to setup yet!

The most simple thing is to not use one web, but use subwebs
defined based (in part) on differences of authorship grants.
You said that adding to Authors role propogated throughout,
which implies either that you do not have subwebs, or that these
are defined but are configured to have the same permissions
as their parent.

Use the sharepoint admin web interface to get things working
as you need them, and then you could use that as a pattern
from which you could (try to) actually get NTFS permissions
to be correctly restrictive for the authorship differences.
Be warned however, actually doing this, taking NTFS control
away from the FPSE is messy work.
