MORE INFORMATION
================

Incorrect permissions can be the root of many problems encountered with the use
of the FrontPage Server Extensions. The following steps are a good starting
point in trouble shooting problems with the Server Extensions.

Note: You must be a FrontPage Administrator in order to do the following.

1. Click Start and point to Programs.

2. Click Microsoft FrontPage 98.

3. If your Web is in the list, highlight it, click OK, and skip to step 6. If
   your Web is not in the list, click More Webs and type the name of your server
   in the box.

4. Click List Webs.

5. Highlight your Web and click OK.

6. On the Tools menu, click Permissions.

7. On the User tab, remove IUSR_<computername> (if it is there).

8. On the Groups tab, remove Interactive, Network, and Everyone (if they are
   listed).

9. Click Apply.

10. On the User tab, make sure that the correct radio button is selected to
   either enable or restrict browse access, based on your preference.

11. Click OK.

If Interactive or Network is on the Groups tab, do the following:

1. Click Start, and then click Run.

2. Type the following path in the "Open:" box:

   <drive>:\Program Files\Microsoft FrontPage\Version3.0\Bin\Fpsrvwin.exe

   where <drive> is the drive where FrontPage is installed (C by default).

3. In the Select Server or Port box, highlight your server and click the Check
   and Fix button.

4. If you are prompted to tighten security as much as possible, choose Yes.

5. From a command prompt, type the following:

   For IIS 4.0

   net stop iisadmin /y
   net start w3svc
   net start msftpsvc
   net start smtpsvc

   For IIS 3.0

   net stop w3svc
   net start w3svc
