Thank you for your help, but we put the site into the trusted zone, but to no avail.

Tested with Firefox still same problem - could this be a group policy issue?

Thanks,

Andy

The only thing I can think of is their IE settings aren't set to default. Have them add the site as a trusted site, and it should no longer prompt them for credentials.

In IE it's under Tools >> Internet Options >> Security

IIS showing windows login, for asp.net app, in certain cases.

Hello,

We have an asp.net app, and to change from forms authentication to windows a/d we usually just change the authentication mode in the web.config, and it works without a problem.

We have one user who still receives the windows login in certain cases. If he uses browse in IIS no problem and same with localhost, and from a client if he uses the machine name not a problem. Using the url he setup in the host headers it is a problem. I read an article on security and loopbacks, and made the necessary changes but still nothing.

The strange part is that he's the only one to report this problem - so can anyone think of anything or experienced this?

Any info or help or even links would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
