Issue

I Receive the following "Reject Request: PostPassmanFile" error message when trying to make any changes in the PASSPORT Web to Host Administrator program (either locally or remotely):

Solution

This error is generally seen when PASSPORT Web to Host is installed on a Windows 2000 Server or Windows Server 2003 with NTFS permissions. If the anonymous user account that is installed by IIS (IUSR_servername) does not have read/write permissions to the file listed in the error message, this error will be generated and changes will not be saved. Below is a list of the minimum permissions that should be applied to the anonymous user to prevent these errors:

File/Folder	Permissions
\Program Files\PASSPORT eClient Admin\Eclient\Ecomes.zwh	Read
\Program Files\PASSPORT eClient Admin\Eclient\Passman.zwm	Read, Write
\Program Files\PASSPORT eClient Admin\Eclient\	Read, Write
\Program Files\PASSPORT eClient Admin\	Full Control

More Information

This issue has been fixed in version 2004-227 and newer. The setup program for these versions will automatically add the necessary permissions to the above files and folders. If changes are made to the security settings on the server after PASSPORT Web to Host is installed, the above settings should be considered.
