Author Windows Integrated Authentication passed through a reverse proxy

Hi

I've got a Sharepoint 2003-Server which runs with integrated windows
authentication. Now I want to allow some customers to access that
server. The problem is that they have to authenticate through a
reverse-proxy (Novell iChain). Now I don't want that they have to
re-enter their user-credentials each time, the webserver wants to know
them. Is it possible, that the reverse proxy passes the credentials in
some way to the sharepoint-server?

If no, please let me know.

Thanks for answering.

I doubt IWA will work over proxy.
You could try basic authentication first, also you might
want to check with Novell on how they normal fufill this requirement.
