Our company website has a staff area. Each staff member has a user id and
password. On the domain, the staff area folder is password protected. There
is also a folder under the staff area folder for each staff member that is
also password protected (each staff member has their own personal page from
which they download personal stuff that other staff members shouldn't have
access to).
I can not "publish" using FrontPage 2003. It repeatedly asks for a user id
and password (when it gets to the staff area folder to list the files, this
is when I get the message). When I input my user id and password, it says
that I don't have permisson to publish. I've contacted the ISP (LunarPages),
and the permissions for our domain and all sub folders is just fine. I also
tried to add the master user id and password to every single password
protected folder as a user, thinking that might make it happy (since it was
asking for the user id and password when it got to the staff area folder).
This approach didn't work.
The weird thing is, that if I remove all the password protection on the
domain end, then publish with FrontPage 2003 (including subwebs), it
publishes everything just fine. I'm just tired of having to undo, then redo
all the passwords. This is a major pain in the rear when you just need to
change a single page (there are over 40 password protected folders). I've
checked, and FrontPage extensions are installed on the main web and subwebs
(which is evident, since it will publish when the passwords are removed).
The service provider says that I need to delete the entire web from the
public html directory and publish from scratch (then re-establish all the
password protected folders, recreate all user ids and passwords etc.). This
will take at least an entire day, which I simply don't have. Certainly there
is something else that will fix this problem!
Thanks in advance.
