Outlook Authentication

[sosad2004]

Hi All

I’m running on a windows network with Exchange server 5.5 and and Windows Xp on the client computers. I've recently created 1 generic user account for 10 users on the LAN, but my problem now is to get Outlook to require authentication so that the users can each open there individual mailboxes while logged on to the domain with the generic user account.

PLEASE ASSIST!!

When you added the accounts you should have been asked to set authentication and this is usually set to their domain login. If this is the message you used then they will not be asked as they will authenticate automatically through the domain. To prove that this is the case try opening account "A" on machine "B" and it should tell you that you are not authorised

Set up separate Outlook profiles and require it to prompt the user for credentials.
