    Authentication

    Hi everyone. I'm brand new here and made up to have a found a UK SP group!
    I have just setup sharepoint on a server at work (my-srv-021).

    It all runs fine in there and picks me up as "Administrator" as that is the server logon name.

    WHen I navigate to it locally from my Windows XP latop, I get "Error: Access Denied" message.

    Underneath it does pick up my local user/logon name of "tom".

    So where I am going wrong? I have setup my name in SP to give me ("tom") full control.

    Thanks

    Tom

    you need to give "torn" permission to view the site within site actions -> site settings -> advanced permission

    in advanced permissions you can select all authenticated users or just type in the torn user account.

     

    hope this helps

    Wicked, that solved it straight away. Quite annoying that it is not default but never mind!

    Thanks
