This may be a problem that should be posted in the NT forum but since I can't say that is the problem 100% for sure I am posting this here.
I have two different forums on two separate servers (same domain). I have the previous version of Snitz on one server, which works fine with NT Authentication. However the second server running the new version of Snitz is having an issue with NT Authentication. I can delete any forum, post, or category but I am not able to add or edit any on of those.
As you can see by this image I am logged in as the admin (admin options link shows)
Is this a bug in the new version or did I miss a step?
Also I should point out that I could do every other function of the Admin except add forums or categories to the forum. |

| I don't think the code for NT Auth has been changed in the new version, so I don't really see why that is happening. Also, the authentication for each of the functions that require it, is always done the same way... |

| I'm running into a similar issue after upgrading to v3.4.06 from v3.4.05. I used the upgrade "package" (files only) modified the strDBType and the strConnString within the config.asp then copied the files over. Run the setup.asp and things seemed fine until users tried to post. they get the "invalid username or password" message. this also occurs when they try to get their "profile" (after the submit). obviously I'm missing a site specific entry somewhere, but haven't found it yet. Any ideas? |

some additional info....
As the administrator I do not have the issue. I made a different user an administrator but it did not resolve the issue for that user. I have had about 4-5 users check and it is the same for all of them, "invalid user or password". Without having everyone check, I'm guessing that all users are having the problem (except admin - me) |

I think I have narrowed it down to the "inc_func_common.asp" file. If I put the old version (3.4.05)of that file back, the users are able to do a successful "submit" to view their profile and are now able to post.
I'm looking through the code to see if I can spot anything that is causing the problem. My guess is that you'll find it before I do. |

Ok, I think I may have the solution in inc_func_common
1) in the function chkuser in 3.4.06 the line in red was added
MemberID = rsCheck("MEMBER_ID")
strDBNTUserName = rsCheck("M_NAME")
if (rsCheck("MEMBER_ID") & "" = fAuthor & "") and (cLng(rsCheck("M_LEVEL")) <> 3) then
why it was added I am not sure, try commenting out this line in the 3.4.06 code and let us know whether or not it fixes the issue |

Looks like that did the trick. I am able to enter the profile configuration and submit posts.
Good catch. I hope it helps others as well.
Thanks. |
