Does anyone have an idea why I have to
enter a network password before I can
view my PHP-files?

I've installed PHP 4.0.6 on a Microsoft
W2K Advanced Server running IIS 5.
Previous installations of PHP on W2K
workstations didn't give me this problem.

And it only occurs with *.php files, other
extensions don't require authentication...

    Add the anonymous user (check your IIS properties to see who this is - might be something like IUSER_ANONYMOUS) to your folder's sharing properties.

      Nope, this doesn't solve the problem...

      It seems as if something is disabling
      the anonymous user access for PHP-files.

      Should I set some special parameter in
      the php.ini file?

        I had the same problem, none of the PHP documentation was much help. I was able to make things work ok by putting the php4isapi.dll and the php4ts.dll into c:\winnt\system32\inetserv\ directory, where all the other ISAPI apps live. Then set the 'App Mappings' as described in the PHP install docs to map .php files to the php4isapi.dll in the inetserv directory.

        Apparently c:\php is NOT a good place to run the ISAPI version from, probably due to permissions in Win2k.
