Cameron, What were the security settings you used on your IIS? In my case it is necessary to turn off anonymous authentication, for reasons unrelated to xerces.
You said you used WinInet code, but it's not clear from your code snippet where you used it. I presume your wrote your own input source class? That won't help much in my case, since that would only allow xerces to read the initial xml file. But if that file contains references to schema files via the schemaLocation attribute, xerces will always use the NetAccessor class to download the schema files. Which will fail if the schema files reside on the same IIS server. Anyway, I rewrote the Win32 NetAccessor code to use WinInet API calls instead of WinSock API calls, and then I had no more problems connecting to the IIS server. WinInet handles all underlying authentication 'handshakes'. But I don't want to copy & paste that code every time I update to a new version of the xerces library. I think it should be part of the distribution. Maybe that's a question for the xerces gurus: Is there a good reason why the Win32 NetAccessor has been written with the WinSock API? Can it be rewritten using WinInet?
