We strongly recommend that all users upgrade to Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) version 6.0 running on Microsoft Windows Server 2003. IIS 6.0 significantly increases Web infrastructure security. For more information about IIS security-related topics, visit the following Microsoft Web site:

SYMPTOMS
When you click the Directory Security tab on the property sheet for a Web site or folder in the Internet Services Manager (ISM) for Internet Information Services (IIS), you may find that the Edit button for Secure Communications is available, but clicking it does not open the Secure Communications property sheet.



CAUSE
This problem can occur if the file that controls the Secure Communications property sheet becomes unregistered, corrupt, or inaccessible due to NTFS permissions.

The following file controls the Secure Communications property sheet:

%SystemRoot%\system32\inetsrv\Certmap.ocx



RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem, try to re-register Certmap.ocx by using the following command:

regsvr32 %systemroot%\system32\inetsrv\certmap.ocx

If you receive an error executing the command, or if it does not fix the problem, verify that the user who is logged on has NTFS rights to access the file.
