IIS / Authentication

How can I prompt the user for the User ID and Password?

I can specify properties but I can't see how to add a dialog to prompt the user for the property values.

Hi,

Please note that the User Guide contains the Create a new dialog tutorial which may help you.

Re: IIS / Authentication

Thanks for the suggestions I build the dialog page and that was easy enough but I can't find vbscript examples on how to set the user id and password and turn off windows authentication. Has anyone else figured this out?

Re: IIS / Authentication

Hi,

I'm not sure I understand what you mean. Are you referring to the elevation prompt shown by Windows for the install or to the authentication information used by IIS? If you are referring to IIS, you can use the "Property based user" and "Use a property to set password" options in the Authentication tab of the IIS page.
