Re: accessing IWA secured website from Mac?

Hi everyone

Having a little trouble with an intranet system we've developed.

Basically, the Intranet uses IWA to automatically log the user in on our
WIndows machines, using IE.

We have a couple of PC laptops, and when you try and connect to the Intranet
from those, it asks you for your domain password and lets you in. Fine.

On our mac laptops however, which use Safari, it just doesn't let you
anywhere near the site. Safari gives an "access denied" error, and if I
enable "anonymouse access", that breaks out Intranet.

What's the solution? Can we use a Mac to connect to the Intranet? Will
Safari do it with some settings changes (if so, what are they?). Will an
upgrade to Safari 2 work, or could we install Firefox 2 and presumably that
work?!

Thanks for any help you can give.

Cheers

Hi Dan

that's a good question... As far as I can see in the documentation for
WSS (Windows 2003 service, that used IWA) it will work with Safari 2.0
and Firefox 1.5. I confirm that Firefox is working with IWA but I have
never did tested it on Mac. Try to install the newest version of
Safari browser...

Cheers
