I thought Digest Authentication worked the same way as IWA. With Digest you
hand your username, and a hash of your password to IIS. IIS passes this to
the Domain Controller. DC performs the same hash, and determines whether the
hash matches the one stored in AD. If they match, appropriate token is sent
back to IIS.

Also, OP mentioned using Windows 2000, but with Windows 2003, I'm under the
impression that Basic Authentication is now a network, not a local, logon.
