    Windows Integrated Auth Not Working

    Reply Contact

    I have created a new directory under a website on an IIS 6 box.  I created a new account and granted the user permissions to the new directory.  Then removed anonymous access.  However, I'm unable to login to the account using the new credentials.

     Any suggestions as to what I'm doing wrong?  I've done this numerous times before on other servers without any issue.

    Thx

    What status and sub-status codes are getting logged for the failed requests?

    FWIW, WIA is designed to be used with Windows domain accounts (as opposed to local server accounts), where the user is logged on locally with a domain account that has NTFS permissions to the content.  Internet Explorer is able to then pass those domain credentials in the background over the network without prompting the user.

    They are 401.1 codes.

     I think I may know what is happening.  The website in question is public facing (I thought it was just internal) and I suspect that the firewall/proxy is blocking the attempts to authenticate.  I'm now pursuing basic auth. + SSL.

     Cheers

    Possibly.  WIA is not supported through proxies.  Basic + SSL would be more appropriate in your case.
