Ok, so I'm building a site on my local PC. I'm running Windows 2k and when I try to view my localhost site in IE, it works like champ.

However, when I try to view the same page in netscape 6, I get 403.2 error - You are not authorized to view this page. It's the same result when I try 127.0.0.1 instead of localhost.

Any ideas? Is this a setting in IIS?

Thanks,
Damon

IIS is the one giving Netscape the 403 error. Either you have a weird proxy configuration in NS6, or you have misconfigured IIS.

I am not sure, but perhaps something with the headers?

There's an option called 'NT Challenge/Response' or 'Windows integrated authentication' in IIS that works only with IE. If that's in effect, it would explain the problem.

See if 'Anonymous access' is checked. If not, try turning it on.
