It's definetely a WIn Server 2008 issue b/c I can get it to work on my PC running Win7.

I've tried both Win Server 2008 and r2 with the same results. Impersonation didn't help even when I granted that ID full access to the install file.

I'll read up more to see if there's anything else I can find or may have missed.

Hi,
I encountered a similar issue. My fix was to remove (Comment) the lines that pertained the authentication in the web config.
In my config the lines removed were:

<!-- Enable IIS Windows authentication for the login page -->
<authentication>
<windowsAuthentication enabled="false" />
<anonymousAuthentication enabled="false" />
</authentication>

It worked for me, as the web.config seems to supersede the settings in IIS for the 'WindowsSigning.aspx' page, and IIS would not allow me to edit the authentication as it happened in your example.

Hope it helps,
-Pedro

Just wanted to take a quick moment and post an update.

I contacted support and they were able to figure out a solution. This bottom portion of the web.config needs to be commented out and then I was able to set the permissions on the windowssignin.aspx page:

I was able to see what you posted by looking at the source HTML of your post.....

That really shouldn't have been necessary as I've had no problems (nor has anyone else posted problems) with that code on Server 2008. It actually sets the permissions for the WindowsSignin.aspx for you. What version of DNN and the AD provider are you using?

Mike,

I'm using 6.1.1 and the AD auth provider is 5.0.4.

While I can't say for certain why it worked, it did. Commenting out that section immediately allowed me to set the permissions on that web page.
