Please help!! ASP.NET isnt working!

[Rick]

Hi,

I just installed IIS and when I tried browsing the link:

[url]http://localhost[/url]

it says:

"you are not authorized to view this page"
HTTP Error 403 - Forbidden

I am on the administrator account and using Windows XP professional. I
tried all sorts of things, [url]http://computer_name[/url], [url]http://dnsserver[/url] but
it just wont work. Any ideas what's wrong? Thanks

This is not an ASP.NET problem, it is an IIS problem. Why not try on the IIS
newsgroup?

Hi,

Is Anonymous Access enabled?
