Re: Keep prompting for credential in accessing a website

Hi,

I have an intranet website using IIS 6.0 on a Win2003 server. It was
written in ASP.NET. In the IIS manager, I set up Authenticated access
to "Digest authentication for Window domain" with a valid Realm (with
a valid domain)

This works for everyone except one internal user. And the credential
that he is using is also valid, same credentials he uses for logging
onto the network.

If I check-off "Integrated Windows authentication" box in IIS, it
works perfectly for this user, however, when the user is prompt for
authentication dialogue box , he has to put in the domain in the user
name as well, i.e. domain\username, instead of just the username.

The whole reason of not having the "integrated window authentication"
is because users are complaining about typing that extra "domain" in
the username.

Can anyone please let me know why this particular user can't get
passed the authentication stage when "Integrated Windows
authentication" is unchecked? I really need to keep this option. And
this user need to access the site ASAP.

Please advice.

Thanks in advance. Your help would be greatly appreciated.

It would help if you included the details of which browser, including
version, this person is using, and whether they have any "security" software
installed (eg Norton Internet Security, ZoneAlarm, etc).

You could use Integrated Windows auth and have you users add the site
address to their Trusted Sites list - this will mean that if their logon
credentials match their Windows login name and password, they will
automatically login to the intranet site without seeing a login dialog.
