when setting permissions for that dir...use IUSERWAM or some thing like that....look for that user in the user list.

My .cfm text page (http://de.uh.edu/index.cfm) generates the following error: ===== ERROR MESSAGE ===== You are not authorized to view this page You do not have permission to view this directory or page using the credentials you supplied. HTTP 401.3 - Access denied by ACL on resource Internet Information Services ===== END ERROR MESSAGE ===== On p.31 of the "Installing ColdFusion MX" booklet, they detail how to change the CFMX user account in Windows if "the user account under which CFMX runs has an inappropriate level of access..." I followed the procedures outlined, but my problem still isn't fixed. One thing I wasn't sure of is what account information I was supposed to use. The screenshot shows "This Account" set to LocalSystem. Is LocalSystem just default filler text, or is it the actual name of the correct account? I was hoping this was a fairly common problem, but time on Google, Macromedia, and Microsoft have yielded only a few obscure references to NTFS permissions and resetting them. But what that means is beyond me.
