I've been handed an IIS server running on a windows 2000 server box. I am
by no means an IIS guru so please bare with me.

1) I don't know how to get you the version information, but I'm assuming its
IIS5 which I think is the default for windows 2000 server.
2) I have copied a directory from server 1 to server 2 (2 = box in
question).
3) I have created a new virtual directory in IIS and with default settings,
pointed it to the directory I copied
from server 1. Every setting seems to match up.
4) However, when I view the page I'm getting a 403 (unauthorized).

I did the exact same procedure on another one of the directories and
everything worked fine. Does anyone have some suggestions of things for me
to check out?

Thanks
Sam
