    IIS and Joomla security question

    Reply Contact

    I am porting a Joomla site on Apache to a new server with w2k3 and IIS 6.

    Everything seems ok, I have PHP, MySql and Joomla 1.0.15 running, but...

    I have tried to check if everything is ok with Joomla HISA, but no matter what security I set on the folders I always get that configuration.ph is writable, and all of the folders have 777 (world writable) permission.

    The permissions for the root folder of the site are:
    Administrators full access
    IUSR_COMP Read&Execute, List, Read

    and for the configuration.php:
    Administrators full access
    IUSR_COMP Read&Execute, Read

    What am I doing wrong?

    Thanks

     Right click on configuration.php in Windows Explorer, select properties, then check the "Read-only" box and exit by clicking ok.

    That did it for configuration.php, thanks.

    But what about the security settings for the folders?
