Access Denied for the Default Document File Mapped to Ssinc.dll

Article ID:246806

SYMPTOMS

Any file extension, such as .htm or .stm (the default mapping for Ssinc.dll) can be mapped to Ssinc.dll through "App Mappings" in the Internet Service Manager. After mapping, the #include statement is used in the file (.htm or .stm for this case) to include other files. If a file, such as default.htm, is set as the default document and has such an #include statement in it and is then browsed as the default document (for example, http://server vs. http://server/default.htm), a 401 Access denied response is always sent to the browser (resulting in a password prompt) even if a valid username/password pair is entered.
