Hi,

I have a website using IWA (no anonymous logins) and delegation. I have
IWA enabled on IE6 and the site is in the Trusted Zone.

The same setup on the default website goes straight in without asking
for credentials as I would expect. Why is the non-default website
asking for credentials and not using my windows login? Is it something
to do with the host header?

Webserver: S05010097.corp.dnsdom.net
Non-default Web Site (host header): ps.test.other.com

Host Header is set up on the DNS server.

Cheers,

James

Hi,

Try moving site from Trusted Zone to Local Intranet Zone.

Hi Miha,

It's working now. I don't know why. I rebooted, emptied the cache etc
etc and it made no difference. Now it has spontaneously fixed itself...

Setting up delegation is killing me...

Thanks for your help anyway.

James ;o)
