SUMMARY
This article describes how to reset permissions when the FrontPage 2000 Server Extensions are installed and there are multiple virtual servers that are having permissions problems. The reset steps in the "More Information" section of this article leave all custom permissions intact.



MORE INFORMATION
To reset permissions, follow these steps:  On the Windows Start menu, click Run. In the Open box, type Cmd . Change to the parent directory that contains your virtual servers (for example C:\InetPub). Type the following command at the command prompt:

Cacls  /T /E /R iusr_  network interactive everyone /G system:f administrators:f

Where  is the name of the home directory for the virtual server, and iusr_  is the name of the anonymous user on your computer.

NOTE: If you want to run this command on multiple virtual servers at the same time, you can replace  with *.* and this command will run on all folders below and on their contents. Open the Internet Services Manager. To do this, follow the steps for your version of IIS:  For IIS 4.0:  On the Windows Start menu, point to Programs, and then click Windows NT 4.0 Option Pack.</li> Click Microsoft Internet Information Server.</li> Select Internet Service Manager.</li></ol> </li> For IIS 5.0: <ol style="list-style-type: lower-alpha;"> On the Windows Start menu, point to Programs, and then click Administrative Tools.</li> Select Internet Services Manager.</li></ol> </li> For IIS 5.1: <ol style="list-style-type: lower-alpha;"> Open Control Panel.</li> Double-click Administrative Tools.</li> Double-click Internet Information Services.</li></ol> </li></ul> </li> In Internet Service Manager, click the plus sign (+) next to the Internet Information Server (IIS) folder.</li> Right-click the default Web site, point to Tasks, and then click Check Server Extensions. If you are prompted to tighten security as much as possible, click Yes.</li> Restart IIS. To do this, follow the steps for your version of IIS: <ul> For IIS 4.0: <ol style="list-style-type: lower-alpha;"> From a command prompt, type the following:

net stop iisadmin /y

net start w3svc

net start msftpsvc (if you are using the FTP Server)

net start smtpsvc (if you are using the SMTP Service)

NOTE: If you have other services that are dependent on IIS, you will need to restart them also.</li></ol> </li> For IIS 5.0 and IIS 5.1: <ol style="list-style-type: lower-alpha;"> <li>On the Windows Start menu, click Run.</li> <li>In the Run box, type iisreset and then click OK.</li></ol> </li></ul> </li> <li>At this point, browse access will be restricted and you will need to reconfigure your permissions. To do this, follow these steps for each virtual server: <ol style="list-style-type: lower-alpha;"> <li>In FrontPage 2000, open the Root Web for the virtual server.</li> <li>On the Tools menu, click Security, and then click Permissions.</li> <li>Click the Users tab. Click Everyone has browse access, and then click Apply.</li> <li>Repeat steps b and c for each subweb.</li></ol> </li></ol>
