Though nobody offered anything on this - I've now discovered that the IUSR_servername account was not listed as a user of the z:\cfusion folders - and now I've run CACLS through the folders and added it, all is well. It's not at all clear how it happened - it may have been during a file restore after we rebuilt the server. We'd rebuilt the IUSR account too - so it had a different sid from the one stored on the backup databases which we restored.

The NT server is running SP 6a Documents publish OK with extension .htm. I have declared the extension default.cfm, index.cfm in the IIS MMC console as valid. (see http://robots.open.ac.uk for an 'index.htm' and then see http://cci.open.ac.uk for an example failure - the .htm sidebar appears - but the .cfm body which is referenced in the frameset. See also http://computing.open.ac.uk/home/ which has an index.cfm as the root page) All documents have at least read access to account IUSR_servername. IIS4 is set up to work with anonymous access only. However, whenever I try address a document .cfm using a web browser, I receive: 401.3 Unauthorized: Unauthorized due to ACL on resource All the CF services are reported as running normally in the Service Manager. I am baffled as to where the security problem lies. Can anyone advise? The vexing part is that initially, it all worked absolutely fine. I can't even seem to get at the Cold Fusion Administrator page now. With many thanks if you can help!
