I've recently put 2003 Advanced Server on a machine that previously had
Windows XP Pro. This machine hosts my web site which I normally create on
another machine using FrontPage 2003. The web site was on the machine when
it was XP Pro and stayed there during the operating system change. After the
operating system change, I was still able to edit the web site on my work
machine
and deploy to the 2003 Advanced Server. The web site works just like it
used to. Almost anyway.
One exception is the Feedback page. There appear to be some sort of
permissions that I need to set on the server but I don't know what they
would be or where to set them required in order to permit this form to
collect its information and email them to a specified address. This is a
standard FrontPage Feedback page except that I've specified that it send the
user's
feedback via email in addition to saving the form to _private/inforeq.txt.
This was done with the standard FrontPage method of
right clicking on the page, selecting Page Properties, selecting 'Send to'
and specifying the email address that the form's contents are to be sent.
When a user tries to submit the feedback form, he gets a logon dialog box.
My first thought was that I didn't have an SMTP server set up right and so
I eliminated the email portion of the form submit. No change. Still getting
the logon dialog box. My next guess is that there is a problem of some
sort in writing the form's data to the file but I don't know enough about
server permissions to know how to fix that.
Why is the logon box appearing and, more importantly, how do I get it not
show?
Please keep in mind that I'm a C++ programmer and not a server administrator
and so try to keep your explanations down to words of one syllable or less
and
be very detailed and precise in your explanations. I do thank you for your
help.
