    IIS 7 Remote Admin issue

    Hello. New to IIS 7. Trying to connect from a Windows XP SP3 machine to Windows Server 2008 SP2. I am getting this error:

     

    Could not connect to the specified computer

    Details: The remote server returned an error: (410) Unauthorized

     

    I am connecting as myself, a domain admin, who is an admin both on my workstation and the server in question. From what I understatnd and read so far, this is a permission problem. But where?

    It says that admins can automatically connect to the site. it shows this in the WMSvc log:

    2009-08-03 20:53:18 172.1x.x.x POST /Service.axd Module=Framework&Method=GetWebManagementInfo 8172 - 172.x.x.x WebManagementShell|7.0.0.0|2.0.50727.3082|System.Windows.Forms.Control 401 2 5 15

    thanks,

    Could you look in the Event Viewer in the Server, in particular in the Application Log to see if you find more information. Also look into the Security Log to see if the authentication process is succeeding.

     Thank you for forcing me to look into the security log. I often overlook it due to the plethora of entries in there. My issue was quite simple. I was not putting the domain name in front of my account name. Duh!!!
