Hello all,

I have a problem with the assitstent for the user-registration-form (FP
2002, IIS 5.1). When I built the form, all was good, but when I try to
configure the properties of the form, I cannot push the Server-Button
(EXTRA-SERVER) because the "server" ist not available (higlighted)
When I publish my web to server, and start the registration, I get the
Message [FrontPage-Component "user-registration"]

I don't know what to do?
greetings from Germany

The user-registration form is Apache on UNIX only and will not work with
IIS. That could be part of the problem. The main reason is it's often used
as security when in fact it provides zero security at all and the way IIS
security works it can't psuedo-secure part of a site using a registration
bot.

Hope this helps,

But what can I do to protect a side in my web without MS-FP Registration, is
there a template or anything else, that the user must give his user-ID and a
password before he can get access to the webside?

The easiest way on IIS is to create Windows-based user account. You can then
have a subweb with restricted access to only those accounts that you
specify. Of course, the problem with this is they usually require NT
licenses. There are products out there that can do this for you though
without having to pay for costly NT licenses. Check out authentix by Flicks
software (www.flicks.com) Authentix will let you secure things and save user
information in a database, which is nice because you can totally control it
that way.

Mark,
Have you ever heard of anyone's experiences with "spooky login" as it's used
for fp?
