I am sorry for my ignorance. I thought that I had followed all the instructions included on the page that you reference. Could you please tell me what "bad default value in IIS" it is? Thanks! (KevinTucker)
- The bad default value is that Microsoft thinks that it may censor error pages and relief users from internals at this point. This is bad.
Ok. I finally found it, despite my blindness... It has to do with resetting the default for the 404 error page, right? Thanks. (KevinTucker)
