Deploy using IIS Web Deploy (WMSv)c with basic auth fails but NTLM works?

I'm trying to setup Web Deploy on IIS 7, so that 1-click publishing in Visual Studio works.

Every time i try and publish the app i get a 401 error, which seems to be failing to auth against WMSvc. I hav开发者_如何学Pythone set the build output verbosity to detailed and can see the web deploy command being used. When i try and run it from the command prompt i get the same 401 error (ERROR_USER_UNAUTHORIZED), however when i change the the authType parameter in the command from basic to NTLM it works fine and publishes correctly...

As far as i was aware WMSvc only worked with basic auth and not NTLM. As far as my server config goes i have tried setting the management service to accept only windows users and to allow Windows users and management service users, neither setting seems to make any odds.

I can connect fine using IIS manager locally to the remote server, but as soon as i try and use any of the export functionality on the remote server i get permission issues from the remote connection. This all seems most odd, can any one shed some light on this behaviour?

Just providing the answer that worked for me, after searching in vain I stumbled upon an article by Phil Haack (whilst looking for something else entirely):

It turned out I had a URL-ACL defined which was stopping everything from working. Followed the instructions in that post and it all just worked like it should :-)

I personally wish web deploy was a bit less fragile when it comes to setting it up, works great once you've gone through the pain.
