Re: accessing IWA secured website from Mac?

Thanks for the reply.

I don' think either of those are feasible to be honest, as we rely on
knowing the authenticated user for security purposes within our system - so
using basic or anonymous will be a bit of a problem (as I understand it?).

Using IE on the Mac works, although it gives a weird error saying it can't
access "http://intranet/(s(..sessionID..))/StartPage.aspx" - weird because if
you reload the page, it works?!

Anyone got any ideas on this!?

Tnx, Dan.

Hi Dan,

If some of your client machine are of non-windows or non-IE browser, and
server application in IIS require windows specific authenticaiton, I think
you may consider the followings:

1. Still use "integrated windows" authentication at server-side, however,
you need to enable "anonymous" so as to avoid the client-side supply
security token or credential info.

2. You can also use basic authentication if this is an intranet
application. Basic authentication is a http standard and is supported by
most web browsers. Also, in IIS you can configure the basic authentication
to mapp the authenticated user (through prompted username/password
credentials) to a cerrtain windows identity(of server or domain).
