two days ago I changed the authentication of my site from "Windows" into "Forms". So far so good, users are now in a SQL Express 2005 and it works fine. The problem is now, I have have no access to the Site with my SP Deigner 2007. Does he only support Windows-Authentication? Visual Studio ist the same, I get error message to enable Windows Authentication on IIS, but I can´t because "Forms" is enabled. Does anyone had the same problem? What can I do?
Thanx a lot, fiuman007
Yes SharePoint designer doesn't work with Forms Authentication. What I normally do is extend the site on a second web app and enable that with Windows Auth. Any SPD work is then done through this alternate url/port.
