Could someone point me in the direction of a good script that will allow me to authenicate users based on their NT user id and password? My company has refused to give my Intranet site write access, thus even I can't update my own database. They have told me to write a script that will allow access only to users based on their NT account information. I have been scoping the web but cannot seem to find any articles related to this issue. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
Bren

NT authentication needs to be setup on the server in IIS. The user will be required to enter user/pass before even seeing the actual web site, from then on all ASP scripts will run underneath the clients username.

I spent the weekend reading an IIS book and realized what you are saying. Actually, I just need them to give my database folder write access, which is what I suspected all along. My site works fine, I can see data from my database being pulled in, but I can't update or delete any of the data.


Ahhhh.... Big companies. They love to drive you nuts.

Thanks,
