Can't create new login for IUSR

[rwei]

I am new to IUSR stuffs.

I was told to create new login ID to SQL Server using 'IUSR_machinename' so that my ASP page can do some works with SQL Server.

However, after I click the "New Login", I can't seem to be able to find "IUSR_machinename".

Does anyone know why?

When I look at mine, I see that the logins specify the real name of the machine where you have the word machinenane. So if your server is webserver1 then it would be 'IUSR_webserver1'

wouldn't you also have to include "webserver1\IUSR_webserver1" ?
