HI Ashwin,

Thanks a lot for your patience on this issue.

>From your description, it seems only administrator can logon to the
companyweb from the client computer? And it prompt a user name and
password. It seems the IIS is not configured correctly.

1. If possible, could you uncheck the proxy setting on the client computer
to see if the issue can be reproduced or not?
2. Does the issue occurred if you create a new user, you can create a user
via add user wizard to see if you can reproduce the issue with the new
user.
3. By default every user will be assigned to sharepoint group which should
be able to access the companyweb, please check the every domain user have
read permission for the following folder. c:\inetpub\companyweb
4. Please also follow the steps below to check the IE setting on the client
computer.

On the client computer, double-click Internet Options in Control Panel. On
the Security tab, select the "Local intranet" zone and click Sites. Ensure
http://companyweb is listed in the "Web sites" list. Click Close and then
click Custom Level, scroll down to the bottom of the Settings list, under
User Authentication\Logon, ensure either "Automatic logon only in Intranet
zone" is selected. Test again and see how it goes.

5. If the problem still exists, please logon companyweb via user name and
password with admin and then check the following setting on the companyweb
sites.

Open Companyweb via the administrator account. In the Home page please
click Site Settings. Click manage Users. Please Make sure your user account
has proper rights in this page.

I really appreciate your understanding on this issue. Please feel free to
post back results. I am glad to be of assistance.

| Hello Charles.
|
| Thank you for that information, here are the results.
|
| I have reinstalled the Intranet COmponent.
|
| I can ping company web from the client computers,
|
| But when they go to access the page, it prompts them with a password
field,
| and will not allow them to login. Only Adminstrators are allowed to log
in.
|
| I have checked the permissions in IIS on companyweb as to my own SBS box
and
| the credentials are the same:
|
| Enable Annoynmous Access is not enabled
| Windows Authentification is checked.
|
| What can cause the users not be dennied to access the intranet?
|
| Your help would much appreicated.
|
| Thank you Charles
