Thanks. IIS7 uses IISPassword to simulate a few htaccess directives, but it’s not useful to me in any event.
There is no web.config file anywhere on any of my 19 sites that I can find, and the host does not give any clues as to whether it can be available. I will have to open a help ticket with the host support. I did create a web.config file in the blog root directory but that didn’t work. Perhaps my host simply doesn’t support this feature.
Assuming I can create a web.config file one way or another, your instructions are clear,and should solve my problem. I’ll keep my fingers crossed. I looked at a few IIS support posts regarding this issue, but they assumed I was intimately acquainted with IIS Server.
Thanks again, and wish me luck, unless you have more pearls to cast at this you-know-what.
