Vault Admin unable to connect

[rplaire]

Greetings,

Read the post about usual suspects with "Unable to connect to server", but access through the web works fine. No proxies. Running SQL on same Win 2003 machine under Network Service account. Debug log looks clean.

Get a 401 error from IIS when attempting to authenticate through the Admin tool. Why?

thanks,

Rory,

See if this KB article helps. Post back if it doesn't.

Hi,

Enabling anonymous access worked. Thanks... the installer choaked at one point, and had to be restarted - this could be the reason that Anon access wasn't enabled.

Do you know when Vault will allow authenticated web access to avoid anon access?

thanks,

Rory:

You can configure non-anonymous access by making changes to the Server's web.config <authentication> <authorization> tags to use Windows authentication. IIS' security model has more information regarding this configuration.

Note changes to web.config for Windows authentication restricts access to the Vault web service to only computers on the local to the Domain. Vault ships using "anonymous access" to allow full Internet access.
