Before installing Active Directory anonymous web users can access my IIS5.0 sites without any authentication
If I install Active Directory and setup the machine as a domain name controller, when web users attempt to go to my websites they are presented with a net logon dialog box to gain access to the domain controller. Can this be eliminated

I have a registered a domain ibidem.us with SBC Yahoo. I currently use a forwarding record to point at my IP address. When my website appears it shows the IP address instead of the domain name in the address box

I would like to know if it is possible to join a domain without setting up Active Directory and DNS
Instead of seeing http://66.120.7.237/ShopIbidemUs/default.asp
I would like to see http://www.ibidem.us/ShopIbidemUs/default.asp

That did not help me. I am still stuck.

Server Error in '/ShopIbidemUs' Application.

I am confused whether I should be using ASPNET or IUSR for anonymous
access. Neither seems to work. I still get a net logon dialog box from
the main site. I used the administrator user and password. I went the
the TEMP asp net folder and permitted both aspnet and iusr full access.
Same result.

Well I overcame the previous file access errors. When I go to the
website, I am still presented with a popup net logon dialog box. I can
leave all the fields blank and just click OK or close the dialog box
and it goes away. The website has already been displayed behind the net
logon dialog box so it seems unneeded anyway. I wish I could stop the
net logon dialog box from popping up. Anyone know how to do this?


*** Sent via Developersdex http://www.developersdex.com ***

I figured out how to get rid of the net logon dialog on the client
machine. So now I have DNS installed and remote clients can view my
website the same as before active directory was installed.

One remaining problem is how do I get my domain name to replace the ip
address when someone visits my site.

Type in ibidem.us in your browser address window and it will bring up
this site:

http://66.120.7.237/ShopIbidemUs/default.aspx

I would like it to say either:

http://ibidem.us/ShopIbidemUs/default.aspx

or

http://www.ibidem.us/ShopIbidemUs/default.aspx

Is this because I am using a forwarding record instead of a cname record
at Yahoo domains?

Anyone know how to do this?

I could not get the A record to work after removing the forwarding
record. I removed the non-working A record and put in a new forwarding
record. I changed the destination from http://66.120.7.237 to
http://ibidem-us.ibidem.us and that seemed to work. So if you now type
ibidem.us in your browser the address box displays

http://ibidem-us.ibidem.us/ShopIbidemUs/default.aspx

which is better than before.

Thanks,

When you ran DCPromo, and created a DC, local accounts are converted to
Domain Accounts (there are no accounts on the DC). The user account that IIS
was using for impersonation before the upgrade no longer exists. You will
need to go into IIS, and tell it the username/password that should now be
used for anonymous access.

Use the IIS Manager, right-click on your website, Properties -> Directory
Security -> Edit Authentication mechanisms. The first one is anonymous
access. Click the browse button, and find the IUSR account in the Domain
(since it no longer exists in the local security accounts database).

OK, this is a problem with running ASPNet on a DC:

If you want to use the name, rather than the IP address, then there must be
an A, or CNAME record in the DNS that resolves the name to the IP address.

At the moment www.ibidem.us points to 66.218.85.169

Whatever webserver at 666.218.85.169 must be then redirecting users to your
IP address.
