IIS - Dont take the default domain setting

[LaforcE]

Hi guyz.

Windows 2000 Server SP4 with all Winupdate.

Domain member.

I have setup the web site with the Windows Authentication and it's working pretty fine. The only thing is that I have the specify the domain each time:

user@domain.com --) Working
domain\user --) Working
user --) Not working

There is only one domain and I don't want my user having to specify it. I tried to use the default domain setting in IIS on the web page properties but it look like this setting is ignored ...

Any ideas ? Any workarounds ?

Thanks all ...

Go it!

You have to give the users (or the group wich is better) the right to log on locally ...

The issue you describe looks like "basic authentication" not windows authentication (should be transparent: no prompt).

If you do not need basic authentication, disable it. However you can specify a default domain in IIS (authentication methods).

Hope this help
