We dont use asp.net (yet), so it looks like we will be modifying the standard 401.1 error to include some more information then.

Not sure if you can do that in asp, and if so, would not know how but as you seem to have your own server, just use a asp.net script to capture, whether a password has expried, if successful on login forward to the forums default.asp
Here is a KB Article on how to do that]]> Fri, 27 Aug 2004 14:18:28 +0000 https://forums.webwiz.net/http-401-1-error_topic11643_post64339.html#64339 <![CDATA[http 401.1 error : We use the webweiz forum with...]]> https://forums.webwiz.net/http-401-1-error_topic11643_post64328.html#64328 Author: typhoon

We use the webweiz forum with ther AD integration.

users who have lost their password or gotten their password expired get an 401.1 error from the server. As it should be. Guess this is a more windows IIS question then an webwiz question.

is it possible to get an customized error message that makes the distinction between an password expired and an wrong password/ username entry? now it just says:

You are not authorized to view this page
You do not have permission to view this directory or page using the credentials you supplied.

------------------------------------------------------------ --------------------

Please try the following:

Click the Refresh button to try again with different credentials.
If you believe you should be able to view this directory or page, please contact the Web site administrator by using the e-mail address or phone number listed on the ...home page.
HTTP 401.1 - Unauthorized: Logon Failed
Internet Information Services
etc...

Some users have the password expired since this is on another AD and they dont know that their password actually expired. So it would be neat if the answer replyed with "password expired" or something..

problem is the server gives the 401.1  error message regardless of the two faults, probably standard from m$..any ideas?
