I've heard of plesk before... today is my first experience with the interface and I'm considering telling the client, as this is a new project, to give me something with direct access. This product feels very bloated and in the way.

I setup my website...

website.com/ pulled up plesk's yada yada Your website has been created page.
The cf-test page required a username and password, I initially shrugged this off that cold fusion was not installed correctly, perhaps.

To test the website, I renamed index.html to xindex.html and created a new... fairly blank... index.html.

website.com/ and website.com/index.html popped a typical .htaccess username and password prompt box. Cancelling goes to a Forbidden page, fake user and password don't work, but my ftp username and password do, they do not, however, take me to an ftp site (to cler that up).

website.com/xindex.html goes straight to the page. no problem at all.

Please, help me out. I've browsed there everywhere, where read permissions may be set, I have set them.
 
most probably permissions are not setup properly. solutions:
allow UISR_MACHINENAME (internet guest account) to read the data
run Reconfigurator with 'check permissions'
ensure that anonymous access is allowed at all (vhost properties->Directory security->auth and acess control)
