I figured it out. I had to enable port 80 in my windows firewall. Thanks for all your help!

No, you shouldn't need to install the ODBC DSN on every PC; that's the beauty of ASP. The *webserver* hits the database via ODBC and pushes the results to the browser.

Is there a possible permissions issue?

If you make a simple "index.html" that just says "hello" can you display it from other PCs?

I am using the following connection string:

Set dbConn = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
dbConn.ConnectionString = "DSN=V803Live;"HOST=Vantage;uid=sysprogress;pwd=sysprogress;database=mfgsys"

I see now that it refers to a DSN that is on my pc but not the client. Do I need to set-up ODBC for all clients, or is there another method that I can use that doesn't require ODBC on the clients?

How are you passing authentication for the ODBC login?

Hi Vic,

When I type http://Weber-Opti740/Parts.asp from my pc it works, but on the other pc, the browser timed out (ie and firefox).

It's because you are hitting it as a Windows share vs. HTTP.

So, from the other PC you want to go to:
http://Weber-Opti740/Parts.asp

Hi Vic,

Here is some more detail. I am using my pc as a web server (temporarily). I have the asp page setup on my pc in C:\InetPub\Parts.asp. If I go to http://localhost from my pc, the Parts.asp page delivers data as expected.

My pc and the InetPub folder is shared. My pc is Weber-opti-740. From another pc logged in as myself or administrator, if I type \\Weber-Opti740, I can see the files including Parts.asp, so it would appear that the permissions are okay. But if I open Parts.asp, I see raw html rather than what ASP should deliver.

Thanks in advance,

Randy

Randy, it needs to sit on a webserver such as IIS on a host.

(C:\inetpub\wwwroot\...)

If you still haven't figured it out let me know.

I have an ASP page that connects to my progress database and displays
part info. It works fine on my pc from the http://localhost folder.

Can someone tell me how to make this asp folder accessible to clients on
the network? I tried to Share the folder - Web Sharing but I don't know
how to get a client connected or mapped to the folder.

Thanks in advance,

Randy Weber

Active Server Pages - are served by a web server, so I would think network clients need to use http://<your machine name>/<your asp page>

What is the error that you get when you try to access the page from a client?

Make sure your pointing at the right directory and also that your security is setup properly in AD. The IUSER (I believe) should have the proper rights to look at the folder. Also, in IIS you can right click on your site, click properties, and go to the directory security tab and see who you have given access to. If its not checked off to use Anonymous access, what is it?

You'll have to go to Control Panel | Admin | IIS to allow access. Make sure
that your firewall is allowing http access to your system.

You never, ever want to share an Active Page folder (or any webserver folder
for that matter) to the outside world. People might be able to replace your
pages, sniff out passwords, etc.
