Hello,

Yes, it is possible. IIS uses NTFS security, and you can configure the
correct NTFS settings on the files. By doing this, your users will be
prompted for a password.

You can also completely remove the possibility for anonymous users by doing
this:

In IIS Manager, right click the Website and click Properties
Click on the Directory Security tab.
Click the Edit button for "Anonymous Access and authentication control"
Remove the check box for "Anonymous access"

Make sure that "Integrated Windows Authentication" is selected.


If you have further questions in setting this up, the people in the IIS
newsgroup will help you (it is easier for us to find your messages if you
post there):

microsoft.public.inetserver.iis

Good luck!
