- Change to the parent directory that contains your virtual servers (for example, D:\InetPub).
- Issue the following command from the command prompt:
Cacls <foldername> /T /E /R iusr_<machinename> network interactive everyone
where <foldername> is the name of the home directory for the virtual server, and iusr_<machinename> is the name of the anonymous user on your computer.
(If you want to run this on multiple virtual servers at the same time, you can replace <foldername> with *.* and this command will run on all folders below and on their contents.)
- Start the FrontPage Server Administrator.

- In the Open box, type the following:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft FrontPage\version3.0\bin\Fpsrvwin.exe

- 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) - At this point, browse access is restricted.
- The following steps need to be done for each virtual server:
- Open the root Web with FrontPage.
