I set up an IIS server and am trying to browse to my IP with a web browser, but it keeps asking for userid/pw?

Question

For some reason it keeps asking for my user authentication. I think all my settings are at the default, and under the "directory security" tab, I have it set for anonymous login. But for some reason it won't do this. Anyone know why?

Answer 1

Did you setup file security on this website as well? Check that. Is this server on a network with Active directory? If so, check securities on there. Also, do you have a firewall enabled? disable briefly and check that... just a few suggestions.
