Hello,

I have several clients of two web based systems who are being prompted with
a popup for their name and password for a website. This is fine since it
was configured in this way. The problem is that they (and on some machines
myself) put in the proper credentials Username - Password - Domain and it
doesn't take it. Yes, I know I typed it in correctly, and so did these
users. We are all on IE6, and I unchecked "Enable Windows Integrated
Authentication" and on most of us, this solved the problem.

The users are configured to have to NOT logon automatically, we are not
implementing Single Signon. So we don't mind the popup asking for the
password, just that it rejects perfectly good credentials.

Why, if the user is putting in the correct username/password/domain, are
they being rejected? They use the same information to log on to their
machines with no problem. Where is the break in the validation?; the IE6
settings, the proxy, the Domain Controller, Kerberos, or IIS itself?

If anyone with any insight on this mystery would be so kind as to post a
reply, I would be most appreciative.

Thanks,

D.
