That article apply to basic authentication involving domain auth. You can
skip that by specifying <domain name>\username. do you have domain ? or
standalone ?

It's quite different for each type of authentication method. I suggest you
open IIS MMC - F1 - help to read about each auth method. the most simple one
will be basic. 401.1 mean login failed. so it's either username / password
is wrong. You can also enable security auditing for logon event to trace.
