How exactly is this not working? Error message, etc?

I think that should work, though you will either need to use host headers
[or different port numbers other than 80] so that IIS knows which site is
being accessed. host headers are probably better, but if you use SSL you'll
need to use different port numbers for the SSL parts of each web site.

You'll also want to use IP restrictions on the anonymous web site so that
internal users [VPN, RAS, etc] cannot surf anonymously.

www.iisfaq.com is a great resource for most common IIS questions.

I don't know your requirements or goals, but I'm not sure I see a big
advantage in requiring a login ID and password only some of the time.
