Thank you for the quick reply. Unfortunately changing the format of the web pages will affect all users (if I read the documentation correctly), and I was looking for a way to do it just for a specific user.
I've also tried linking directly to the image but can only do it if I put the username/password in the URL visible to everyone. I've tried doing it with an ASP response.redirect call to hide that info for the user, but the username and password does not get properly transmitted to the server. I'm sure that's more of an ASP limitation than with your software. I still want our IT users to log into the web site as certain maps will only be available to certain users, so I do not want to use the automatic login fuction for a user from *.*.*.* Is there anyway I can leverage the ~GuestHTML folder to my advantage to just host the *map.png for the public map since security checks on this folder are bypassed and that would be linkable from another page while keeping the security of the main web page. I hope I have cleared up what I am trying to accomplish. Thank you for your time, it is appreciated. Thank you for also working on the DEVICE STATUS or 'aliasing' that will be a welcomed addition.
