Subject: [THIN] FrontPage 2002 doesn't connect to web servers



I've got FrontPage 2002 installed on my Win2K sp2 w/ XP fr2 servers. When I
try to "Open web" I get an error message saying the folder isn't accessible.
If I check the logs on the web server, there is no indication of any
attempt. I can browse to the site in IE successfully. The connection
settings are set to bypass the proxy for this web server, and the web server
is in the list of systems to which NT authentication is allowed. I would
think this would all do the trick. It's not a web server issue as I can
connect fine from a locally installed copy of FrontPage 2002. If I run
TDImon or TCPview from sysinternals on the Citrix server and then try to
connect, I never see FrontPage try to open any connections. Seems like
something has effectively (a little too effectively) disabled network access
for FrontPage. If I log into the server using the local administrator
account (thereby bypassing user GPO settings) I can connect just fine, so
I'm now thinking this is where my problem lies. I've gone through my GPO's
quite a few times, and can't see any settings that would seem to affect
this. Has any one experienced this one before, or have any ideas on what's
causing it? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
