Hi Xiaofeng, This is not CF, it is all about IIS config.
Put a simple .txt file and try to fetch it using CFHTTP, 100% you will end up with the same HTTP error 401. Why? Browser (no matter if it running in generic or private browsing mode) is using your credentials (domain or local account) to negotiate access with IIS, while CF server is run without these permissions. Google "http error 401 IIS" and you can find following link with 5 reasons IIS refuses to authorize CF: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/david.wang/archive/2005/07/14/howto-diagnose-iis-401-access-denied.aspx (http://blogs.msdn.com/b/david.wang/archive/2005/07/14/howto-diagnose-iis-401-access-denied.aspx) So, check your IIS logs for sub-401-code to determine cause of your problem. Cheers, Dmitry.

Do you still get the error in the CF Admin. I am wondering if there is something in the page you are calling throwing the error, not necessarily CF itself.

I checked the web.config and I don't see any requestFiltering settings. Also from within IIS I also checked the Request Filtering section does not seem to have tricky things. So I went ahead and create a brand new site on the same server with a different port. I made that site point to the same web root of the existing one. Re-ran the wsconfig as administrator from the cfusion instance (the only one I have at the moment) and tested again. It turned out to be the same result. I can do it from the browser (now on a different port), but when I run it from CF Admin, bang, 401. What is not making sense to me, still, is when I tried CFHTTP to the URL of the sched task template I saw the dump for WWW-Authenticate is like this: I mean I don't think Windows Authentication is even enabled.
