SYMPTOMS
When you create a nested subweb that uses unique permissions on any supported Web Server, the subweb cannot be opened with a valid account by the author. After trying to authenticate this problem three times, the author is referred to the Wecerr.txt file for more details. The Wecerr.txt reports the following:

You are not authorized to perform the current operation.

The authentication dialog shows that the Resource that the authentication is occurring against is a parent-level Web and not the Web being opened.



CAUSE
FrontPage 2000 uses the new Office Dialog for opening Webs. The Office dialog incorrectly presents an authentication dialog for opening the parent-level Web of the Web being opened.



WORKAROUND
To work around the problem, add the author of the subweb to the parent Web. Make sure that the author of the subweb has Author-level or Browse-level permissions.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the FrontPage 2000 Server Extensions.
