1. NT / Win2k establish Local groups on the IIS server and assign the appropriate level rights to the folders of your IIS server.
2. On the IIS box Administer the website properties, RSA SecurID tab, Enable group security. See below for more detailed explanation.
a. Start your Computer Management console (or ISM console)
b. Under Internet Information Services, select the RSA SecurID tab.
c. Under Advanced Settings; check Enable Group Security.
d. Click Apply and OK, and exit the console.
3. On the ACE/Server Edit the user and add in the Default shell field the NT / Win2k group access name observing case sensitivity.
4. On the IIS box open the control panel>> Services (on Win2k services will be found under administrative Tools) and select the World Wide Web Publishing service; Right Click and select Restart. When Service restarts you can now use group protection.
Notes: Group name in the Default shell field is case sensitive, you must use the same case displayed under Windows Security. All users must have group information in the default shell to access pages when Enable Group Security is checked on that Web Site.
