InternetPassword Property (RDA)
The InternetPassword property specifies the Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) password that is used when connecting to the SQL Server 2005 Compact Edition (SQL Server Compact Edition) Server Agent. If the virtual directory is configured to permit anonymous access, this property is ignored. Otherwise, it is required.

The IIS password string. The default is no password. |
Remarks
The InternetPassword property is required if SQL Server Compact Edition Server Agent is configured to use Basic Authentication or Integrated Windows Authentication.
When you use Basic Authentication, the values of the InternetLogin and InternetPassword properties are passed across the network in clear text form. We recommend that you configure IIS to use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption to safeguard this information. When Integrated Windows Authentication is used, the InternetLogin and InternetPassword values are not passed across the network.
