Hi Rob,
As far as I know running it on a DC shouldn't be a problem, but to be honest
I don't keep a spare DC around to verify this :)
Dave Wickert is more knowledgeable about this area and he suggests that you
may want to take a look at your Active Directory setup -- vary the security
settings, e.g. allow anonymous access, what happens if a machine
administrator hits the virtual directory? Take a look at the ACLs on the
virtual directory. Things like that...
I would also still suggest looking at the IIS log and the FileMon/RegMon
results which may point you in the correct direction.
Thanks,
Akshai
