Could this be a problem of IE6?

I run Win2003 on VMWare and WinXP also on VMWare as guest-OS on a
Notebook with WinXPpro as Host.
Tomcat is running on Win2003, with a servlet-application as only
context. I use NTLMAuthentication for getting the userid from the
client.

Starting the application from the Host-XP results in a error-message
"server or DNS cannot be found" with the following entries in the
tomcat-access-log:
192.168.181.1 - - [07/Mar/2006:13:44:00 +0100] "GET /cloning/ntlmlogin
HTTP/1.0" 401 -
192.168.181.1 - - [07/Mar/2006:13:44:00 +0100] "GET /cloning/ntlmlogin
HTTP/1.0" 401 3


Starting the application from the Guest-XP works fine and I find the
following entries in the tomcat-access-log:
192.168.181.130 - - [07/Mar/2006:13:45:22 +0100] "GET
/cloning/ntlmlogin HTTP/1.1" 401 -
192.168.181.130 - - [07/Mar/2006:13:45:22 +0100] "GET
/cloning/ntlmlogin HTTP/1.1" 401 3
192.168.181.130 - - [07/Mar/2006:13:45:22 +0100] "GET
/cloning/ntlmlogin HTTP/1.1" 200 1406


Starting the application on the Host-XP in Firefox works also fine, but

I am prompted for userid and password. After typing this into the
msgbox, everythin works fine and I find the following entries in the
tomcat-access-log:
192.168.181.1 - - [07/Mar/2006:13:47:10 +0100] "GET /cloning/ntlmlogin
HTTP/1.1" 401 -
192.168.181.1 - - [07/Mar/2006:13:47:15 +0100] "GET /cloning/ntlmlogin
HTTP/1.1" 401 3
192.168.181.1 - - [07/Mar/2006:13:47:15 +0100] "GET /cloning/ntlmlogin
HTTP/1.1" 200 1406


I also can start the application on the Win2003 as a localhost.
I also can start an ASP-Application running under IIS on the Win2003
from IE on the Host-WinXP, and from all the other machines, so I guess,

it could be tomcat, which does not work.
The only part that does not work is starting the servlet-application
from IE on the Host-WinXP ;-(((


I really don't have any idea, what I could do!
Please help me!

Hi there,
debugging the servlet with eclipse remote debugging brings the
following result:
after the first 401 from the server, the client sends the
type-1-message. The server then sends back the
type-2-challenge-message.
After this the client does not come back but presents the error-message
within the browser.
The option "enable/activate integrated windows authentication" is
checked and "automatic logon in intranet zone" is also checked in my
ie6.

I found the reason!

In ie6 there exists an option "use HTTP1.1"
This option was not enabled...
I really dont know, why - I have installed my XP completely new, in the
same way as the guest-XP, but there this option was enabled...

However, now it works
