Re: [IMail Forum] Server Opened to World

Isn't this standard windows behavior?   With the browser "integrated" into windows, entering  \\xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx in the address field is logically the same as entering \\servername which in turn is the same as clicking through NetworkNeighborhood->ServerName from the desktop.  If you are already authenticated to the domain/server you should get a list of shares.   The leading "\\" is the problem.  Are you sure you were entering it like this before?    Jerry       ----- Original Message ----- From: Pat Chin To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, October 18, 2000 4:48 PM Subject: Re: [IMail Forum] Server Opened to World Everything. If I type in \\xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx at the web browser, it will show all my shares. This was not happening prior to installing IMail. -Pat ----- Original Message ----- From: steve To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, October 18, 2000 4:34 PM Subject: RE: [IMail Forum] Server Opened to World are you talking about the web mail or the administration port? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Pat Chin Sent: Wednesday, October 18, 2000 3:56 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [IMail Forum] Server Opened to World I did that.

Maybe that is the problem.

All,     I'd recently installed IMail on one of our client's server and the installation went fine with an exception of one problem. Before installation, I can access the server using IP from IE from anywhere, but it will ask me for a username/password to login. In other words, if I type in http:\\som.eip.add.res, it will pop up with a box asking for username/password authentication.     For some reason, most probably an error on my part, after I'd installed Imail 6.04 on the server, accessing the server via IP does not ask for the authentication anymore. I am pretty sure I did not change any settings on the server prior to installation, nor post install, and I'd even un-install IMail to see if that fixes the problem. Can someone help me out here and tell me if there's a fix for this? I have to get this fix as most of my client's corporate database files are kept on this server.   Thanks   -Pat
