IIS Password Protect

[Anon]

Hi, I just recently installed MySQL. I installed a web thing where people via the web can edit the databases. How do you password protect the folder in which it's in, so no one else can view it but those who know the password. I am using Win XP Pro with IIS 5.1.

Hah, nm, no one needs to answer. If anyone ever has this trouble with Windows XP here's the solution.

1. Go to Control Panel - Tools - Folder Options

2. Uncheck "Use simple file sharing (Recommended)

3. Go to the folder u want to lock - Right click - Properties - Security tab, then I think you can make it from there. =P
