Granting the Correct Access Permissions to Web Sites That BizTalk Server Setup Created


View products that this article applies to.

Summary

A default installation of Microsoft BizTalk Server 2000 or Microsoft BizTalk Server 2002 creates several Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) virtual directories. These virtual directories add functionality to some BizTalk Server tools that are used at design time. This article includes recommendations about how to configure the correct access permissions on these virtual directories.

More information

The http://ServerName/BizTalkServerDocs/ Web site contains the BizTalk Server documentation files, and the http://ServerName/BizTalkServerRepository/ Web site contains the BizTalk Server WebDAV repository.

Users who have to upload edited schemas to the BizTalk Server WebDAV repository must have write permissions to the BizTalkServerRepository virtual directory. Microsoft recommends that you configure the NTFS file system permissions for these virtual directories to permit only those accounts that require access to the BizTalk Server documentation, the BizTalk Server WebDAV repository, or both.

BizTalk Server does not have to gain access to the BizTalkServerRepository virtual directory or to the BizTalkServerDocs virtual directory to process documents. An HTTP connection from the computer that is running BizTalk Server to these virtual directories is made only at design time.
