| I am running XP Professional SP1 with IIS 5.1 on a network of just one
machine set up as a workgroup. One IIS virtual directory is set up with
Integrated Windows Authentication (anonymous and Basic are switched off).
Accessing the virtual directory with IE succeeds, and the AUTH_USER and
REMOTE_USER CGI variables are set to the expected value (i.e.
"machine_name\user_name").
Accessing the virtual directory with Firefox pops up a log-in prompt. If I
enter the username as above, and the correct password, the authentication
fails.
Also, if I take out the local machine from the Local Intranet zone in IE, I
get the same behaviour as Firefox, i.e. the authentication fails.
Similarly, if I add the local machine to the list of NTLM trusted sites in
Firefox, the authentication succeeds and the remote user is again listed as
above.
So, what username should I be using to get manual authentication working?
Does it matter that my username has a space in it?
Thanks!
