I just got a new computer with XP Media Edition. Media Edition comes with IIS 5.1 but when right-clicking to set permissions, there is a sharing menu but not permissions like IIS 6.
I am getting several errors related to files not having appropriate IUSR_MACHINENAME permissions. How are these set in IIS 5.1? Is there a IIS management console snap-in for this?
 
Never mind.

I found this post deeper in the forum.

If you have a missing Security tab for file properties in WIN XP PRO you will have to go to:

Windows Explorer
Choose Tools > Folder Options...
Go to the View tab
Uncheck Use simple file sharing at the very bottom

Found this in the Windows XP Pro forum. Thanks guys!
