Can’t get to html site

 

I've temporarily renamed index.asp to NOindex.asp but I still get the log-in box.

 

I want users to access the Forum from my index.html page - how do I do that?

 

Thanks and kind regards

I think I confused the situation by making two posts but I discovered the second problem after I'd posted the first message.

 

The log-in box says "Enter Network Password" and asks for "User Name", "Password" and "Domain"; as I've never seen the Admin log-in for the Forum, I don't know what it looks like, so from your comments I guess I need to speak to my hosting company about this?

 

Prior to uploading the Forum the site had a dozen or so html pages however, now that I've uploaded the Forum, when anyone accesses the site they get this log-in box; I don't seem to be able to restore index.html as the loading page.

 

I'm not trying to run asp on an html extension. I have just started to learn about .asp so I don't want to go there!

 

I do however have an index.asp file, as well as a default.asp file and lots of other .asp files. The index.asp file was part of the Forum download so I naturally assumed that is was the opening page of the Forum, which is why I thought that if I changed index.asp to NOindex.asp the site would return back to index.html but this doesn't seem to be the case and I'm stuck with this log-in box.

 

Incidentally, my host runs Windows and asp is enabled but I can choose v1.0 or v1.1 - does it matter which?

 

My host also provides a folder called "Databases" so that's where I have placed the database and I have re-directed both "common.asp" files to the new location.

 

So what have I done wrong?

 

Thanks and kind regards
