Hi,
First of all, i can't find my scenario in the forum, thus i create this post, sorry if this has been raised before:
My scenario as below:
Currrently i am using Default App pool with .net version 1.1 (hosted 3 virtual directory, named:A1,A2,A3). Today we have a request to create another app pool with .net version 2.0, and new virtual directory named "NewA1" pointing to this new app pool.
When i tried to access http://serverHostname/NewA1 , i get prompt for Window Security authentication (even i key in the Windows ID and password, it get failed as well) , but if i key in the server IP address ( http://ipadress/NewA1) , i got no issue to access the web site.
I can ping and resolve the servername from my PC without any issue. The virtual directory is granted with "Everyone" write access, so it should not be permission issue.
****I got no issue to access exsiting virtual directory using the hostname, example:http://serverHostname/A1 , http://serverHostname/A2 , http://serverHostname/A3
If I hardcode the servername and IP address in my PC host file, i got no issue to access viahttp://serverHostname/NewA1
There is also a DNS record for this server in my DNS server.
*We configured using Windows Authentication for "Authentication Method"
Appreciate your input.
Thanks.
John
