Hi All,

I have hosted an intranet application on windows 2003 server and the
authentication mode is Windows. The application is in DotNet.

Now for some people, when they open this intranet link it repeatedly
asks for UserName and Password. Actually if we click cancel on this
repeated authentication it works.

The security setting is - "Automatic log on with username and password"

Can someone tell me why the repeated authentication window pops up for
few people and not for everyone.We use intternet explorer 6 as the
browser.

Please help.

Assuming you can authenticate at all, it is almost certainly an APPLICATION
issue.

You will likely do best by asking for help with that application
specifically.

But it could be a problem with the web server too.

Is the client COMPUTER authenticated on the net with the same
domain (or trusted domain) as the IIS server?

Chances are the app is not properly designed but we don't have
near enough information to tell.
