Please help.

When my form at http://www.haggard-and-associates.com/feedback.htm is
submitted, some sort of authentication error happens and the submittal
fails.

I host my own web site on a Windows 2003 Enterprise Server. The web site was
produced by FrontPage 2003 on another machine. I used to host this web site
on a Windows XP but I over wrote the XP operating system with 2003 server.
Now this one particular page is failing.

I would greatly appreciate help with this. I've been trying to figure out
what's wrong for a month now and have not gotten anywhere.

Your form is trying to write to the _private folder (_private/inforeq.txt)
- does inforeq.txt exist there
Check the permissions on that folder in IIS to see if it has write enabled

Yes, the directories exist and the files exist. That's not the problem The
problem has something to do with permissions. I've tried going at it through
the IIS manager and file permissions but no joy so far. Any further
suggestions?

In this case, the page is writing to _private\inforeq.txt. The file exists.
