    FrontPage on IIS7 anyone can publish

    I'm having a security issue with FrontPage on IIS7.  If you are using FrontPage and select Open Site it prompts you for credentials, but if you create a file and then atempt to publish and specify the remote site and select FPE, it doesn't.

     

    How can I secure this to require credentials?

    May be it is using default credentials you supplied at the time of opening a website in the FrontPage. Have you tried creating and publishing page to the website directly? It should ask for the credential for that.

    I was unable to secure frontpage on IIS7.  The Microsoft FrontPage Extentions for 2008 are insecure IMO.  I am able to publish to any site extended with frontpage without providing credentials.
