I got the MSQL DB up and communicating with the web app. On first visit to http://localhost, I am prompted for username/password but am unclear on what I need to give it.

I tried the accounts i put in 'allowed users' but those didn't work. Am I missing something?

Thanks!

Yes that's correct, the "allowed users" defines the Windows accounts which have access to login to the web application. If you're running the server as a standalone/workgroup setup, this should be a local windows account. If attached to a domain you can use domain accounts.

Try the following to troubleshoot:

Open the C:\inetpub\Falcon Orchestrator\web.config file and verify the account(s) added within the section <authentication mode="Windows"/> <sessionState timeout="120"/> <authorization> <allow users="hostname\username"/> <deny users="*"/> </authorization>. Make sure this is setup as expected. NOTE the format should follow hostname\username (use the actual hostname not localhost) for local accounts and domain\username for domain accounts.
