I'm trying to develop an intranet accessible to the users of three internal
networks directly linked by ISDN. Web server is IIS4 on NT4 SP6a

I'm starting with basic authentication (as not all users use Internet
Explorer) just to get the set up right before getting too clever with SSL
etc. My users are in 3 domains U1, U2 and U3. U1 is the main domain where
the web server resides and there is 2-way trust between u1 and u2 and u1
and u3 (but not between U2 and U3).

All users go through a proxy server which also resides in U1.

All users on U1 have no problem getting through the authentication prompt to
the site. My understanding is that users on U2 and U3 should use a username
such as "u2\username" and their normal password.

However, I note that the "Log on locally" user right is necessary for basic
authentication to work, so I have set the user right for Domain Guests and
Domain Users, but find that whatever I do, U2 and U3 domain users cannot get
through the authentication dialog.

Can someone point out where I'm going wrong ?
