This is an IE issue as it has not been configured to recognize your server
FQDN as part of your intranet.

In IE, Go to Tools -> Internet Options -> Security -> Custom Level -> User
Authentication -> Logon and make sure it's not prompting for intranet use.
You can also add your domain or IP to the no proxy setting to get IE to
recognize it as the intranet. Tools -> Internet Options -> Connections ->
LAN Settings -> Advanced.

For security configuration you need to go Tools > Internet Options >
Security > Local intranet > Sites... > Advanced > Add this web site or IP to
the zone.
