Red Stop Sign Appears in IIS MMC When You Connect to a Virtual Directory (288406)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Internet Information Services 5.0
- Microsoft Internet Information Server 4.0
This article was previously published under Q288406 We strongly recommend that all users upgrade to Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) version 6.0 running on Microsoft Windows Server 2003. IIS 6.0 significantly increases Web infrastructure security. For more information about IIS security-related topics, visit the following Microsoft Web site: SYMPTOMS
After you add a virtual directory to a remote share, a red stop sign with the word "Error" inside may appear in the left (scope) pane of the IIS Microsoft Management Console (MMC).
CAUSE
This warning appears because IIS does not support a virtual directory connection to a computer in a domain that does not have a trust relationship with the IIS domain. You can still use this virtual directory and view its contents.
