Re: IE7 Cannot Login!

So, is IE6 able to login against these same machines, while
simultaneously IE7 cannot?

And is this an Intranet or Internet scenario? Because that affects the
viability of Integrated Authentication.

In IE Options, there is a checkbox called "Enable Integrated Windows
Authentication" - if your Intranet uses Kerberos, make sure it is
checked. Otherwise, it will be using NTLM.

Hi all,

Why is IE7 unable to login to our IIS websites? We've employed the same
configuration on our web servers for seven years now and never experienced
such a severe incompatibility issue with a web browser.

Our IIS configuration is as follows:

- Version: IIS 5
- Platform: W2KAS SP4
- SSL: none installed
- Anonymous Access: enabled
- Basic Authentication: disabled
- Digest Authentication: disabled
- Integrated Windows Authentication: enabled

Very straightforward. We have chosen these settings for their cross-browser
compatibility whilst allowing web directory security via NTFS permissions.
Again, this has worked flawlessly for seven years.

Needless to say, our support phones are ringing off the hook with, "my
password isn't working." It's hard not to laugh when telling our customers
that Microsoft's latest web browser is incompatible with Microsoft's own web
servers. :-D

Any help is greatly appreciated.
