Got a machine with WIndows XP Pro and IIS 5.1.
I want the users to be prompted for username and password
to connect to the machine.

I can get BASIC authentication to work, but that mean
username and password are transmitted as clear text.

So, I enabled integrated windows authentication and now
users are also prompted for a domain.

Well, the XP Pro machine is stand alone, on it's own
workgroup. There is no domain.

I tried using the computer's name for the domain and even
the workgroup name, no luck.

Any ideas?
