Redirect on failed access by IUSR

Hi,

I have an Intranet site that I'm trying to work out some authentication issues on. Eventually, I want all of our domain users to add the url for the site into their 'Local Intranet' zone in IE so I can read their domain username automatically when they hit the site w/out prompting for a login. I have turned off anonymous access on the site, and have added the domain to the Local Intranet zone on my machine, and it works fine.

If a user has not added the domain into their Local Intranet zone in IE, then IIS sees them as trying to connect with the IUSR_machinename account, and rejects it since anonymous access is turned off. They then get prompted for their username and password.

What I want to do is instead of prompt them for a username/password, I want to redirect them to a page instructing them on how to add the domain to their Local Intranet zone in IE. Any ideas on how to do this?

I keep running into problems because if I turn on anon access, then everybody is authenticated at IUSR....if I turn it off, then anon users get prompted for a username...

Thanks in advance for any suggestions!
