Windows server 2003 web page hosting

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.security_admin (More info?)

Hey guys, my first post here, i'm running a windows server 2003 box at
home (just to play with) and i cant get the darn thing to serve a
webpage correctly. the error message i keep getting is:

"You are not authorized to view this page
You do not have permission to view this directory or page using the
credentials that you supplied.

Please try the following:

* Contact the Web site administrator if you believe you should be
able to view this directory or page.
* Click the Refresh button to try again with different
credentials.

HTTP Error 401.1 - Unauthorized: Access is denied due to invalid
credentials.
Internet Information Services (IIS)

Technical Information (for support personnel)

* Go to Microsoft Product Support Services and perform a title
search for the words HTTP and 401.
* Open IIS Help, which is accessible in IIS Manager (inetmgr), and
search for topics titled Authentication, Access Control, and About
Custom Error Messages."

Now i've gone thru and made sure that the IIS anonymous acount is
active, and i've tried setting it without any password, and as
"anonymous" as the account's password. I'm not sure where else to
look, i've looked the error message up online also, but everything i
found didnt seem to work.

Thanks!
