Creating a Directory Browsing Page Using ASP

Microsoft provides sample classic ASP code to perform directory listing on a web directory. Someone on a IT forum actually pointed out the below code. I thought Microsoft does a great job since Directory Listing is often a frequently asked question. However, there is a catch in the code and some will be caught scratching their head as to why there is a security issue running the script.

You will need to comment out line 6 - 9.

   6: ' this section is optional - it just denies anonymous access

   7: If Request.ServerVariables("LOGON_USER")="" Then

   8:    Response.Status = "401 Access Denied"

   9: End If
