IIS manager 6 connection to site

ISS connection to site

Hello,

I have now been able to process the setup of IIS6-i.e checking the turn on/off boxes via the control panel/programs.
However, I get an error message when trying to connect to site- could not connect to the specified computer. The remote server returned an error : (401) unathorized.

Can I draw from the experience of an expert here.

I am using ifelodun.05.Winhost.com[my secondary ftp address] as SERVER NAME and ifelodun-online.com[my domain name] as SITE NAME.

cheers.

Double check the username and password. You want to use the same user/pass that you use for an FTP connection. You can find that in the Site Info section of Site Manager.

All Winhost servers run on IIS 7 platform, you'll need IIS7 manager to connect instead of 6.
