[thelist] 403 Forbidden in Dreamweaver MX2004/ASP.net SQL Server 2000

The error 403 does not indicate a database connection problem, but more on a
web configuration problem.  With IIS, this would occur if the account used
as the "web impersonator" lacked required credentials.  I don't know how
this is done in Cassini, but if you can, temporarily make the web
impersonator a member of admininistrator group.  If your problem goes away,
then you need to taylor the impersonators credentials.

Hi all, I've ran into a problem. I've setup a test site locally in
Dreamweaver MX2004 and I'm using Cassini to serve it up. My SQL Server is
remote, when I test my connection string....

<configuration>
	<appSettings>
		<add key="MM_CONNECTION_HANDLER_test"
value="sqlserver.htm" />
		<add key="MM_CONNECTION_STRING_test" value="Data
Source=xx.xxx.xxx.xx,1433;Network Library=DBMSSOCN;Initial
Catalog=Catname;User ID=username;Password=password" />
		<add key="MM_CONNECTION_DATABASETYPE_test"
value="SQLServer" />
		<add key="MM_CONNECTION_SCHEMA_test" value="" />
		<add key="MM_CONNECTION_CATALOG_test" value="" />
	</appSettings>
</configuration>

Dreamweaver gives a "HTTP Error Code 403 Forbidden". Web Matrix and Visual
Studio have no problems connecting to the remote SQL server.
Anyone else ran across this?

Thanks ,

MP
