What are you using for a URL for your local host
Try opening your root web under IIS in FP using http://localhost/

| Well, that seems to work:
|
| <!-- _vti_inf.html version 0.100>
| <!-- 
| This file contains important information used by the FrontPage client
| (the FrontPage Explorer and FrontPage Editor) to communicate with the
| FrontPage server extensions installed on this web server.
|
| The values below are automatically set by FrontPage at installation.
| Normally, you do not need to modify these values, but in case
| you do, the parameters are as follows:
|
| 'FPShtmlScriptUrl', 'FPAuthorScriptUrl', and 'FPAdminScriptUrl' specify
| the relative urls for the scripts that FrontPage uses for remote
| authoring.  These values should not be changed.
|
| 'FPVersion' identifies the version of the FrontPage Server Extensions
| installed, and should not be changed.
| --><!-- FrontPage Configuration Information
|     FPVersion="4.0.2.7802"
|     FPShtmlScriptUrl="_vti_bin/shtml.dll/_vti_rpc"
|     FPAuthorScriptUrl="_vti_bin/_vti_aut/author.dll"
|     FPAdminScriptUrl="_vti_bin/_vti_adm/admin.dll"
| -->
|
| So I should be able to connect with FrontPage then?
|
| One thing was that when it was installing the extensions, it was asking
| about a user or group that would have access.  We only have an administrator
| at this point, so that is what was selected.  So, does that mean that I use
| the administrators credentials for access?
|
| Sorry for such junior league questions.
