The OS is Windows 2000 server. The clients are Win98, WinME, and Win2000 Professional. The
Windows 98 server can log on to and authenticate with the Windows 2000 server, but when she tries to ftp in or post a web
page with Front Page 98 she gets an "Access Denied - Front Page does not support this method of authentication" error.
This is true even if the client tries to authenticate with the Administrator username and password. The Windows 2000 Pro
workstations can't authenticate at all, haven't tried the ME's. All systems are on the same domain, the Windows 2000
server is what NT used to call a PDC, though Windows 2000 no longer maintains that distinction. Authentication fails both
on the LAN and WAN, the results are the same. Windows 2000 Server uses an LDAP directory structure instead of a
username/password database like NT did. It receives a request for authentication, hashes the password, and sends it back
to the client, which in turn must decrypt and return the password before authentication can occur. What am I missing
here?
