Hello;
I am attempting to allow the user to get a reminder email message, but I don't want individuals to be able to register themselves.
One the User Login Settings I'm checking only the Remind Password Page box. When I do this, the reminder does not appear on the Login Page.
If I check the New User Registration box then both links appear.
Is it possible to show only the Reminder link??
Thanks

I think this might contain the answer you are looking for.

Did you get the e-mail with the password reiminder to send? I was unable to get it to work and I have a post looking for advice. Perhaps you could tell me just generally how it worked for you? What email server you use? What if any settings you have to change on IIS or if it all just worked automatically? Your comments would be appreciated.

Thanks roller;
That's exactly what I needed and was looking for. I checked the forum previous to my post for this but didn't find the post you gave me.
Yes, my email reminder worked fine. We've got a stand-alone SMTP server which we use to send mail. It runs a 3rd party product though I'm not sure what it is (I'm not involved in that part of our tech dept.)
I just put the name of our server in the SMTP server: box and used port 25 and it magically worked...
If it didn't I'd have gone to the tech guys, so I'm sorry but I cannot help you troubleshoot as I know very little about mail servers.
Good Luck
Steve

Steve,
check off Register pageand Remind password page checkboxes on the User Login Settings tab in ASPRunner.

Open login.asp file and remove Register link manually.

Delete register.asp file.

Glad it worked out Steve. I uploaded the website to our service provider and it works fine, so there must be something I am missing with our server. Maybe I'll figure it out some day.
