Problems with IIS 5 default domain
|

| I have a W2000 server running IIS 5 for my local intranet and a help desk
website. We use basic authentication and I have set the default domain to my
local domain name. When a user attempts to login the login is rejected unless
the user enters his login as domain\username. When the user only enters
username, I get an event log entry showing that the server is attempting to
authenticate the user against the local server instead of the domain.
I have tried resetting the default domain through the Internet Services
Manager both at the server and at the website level with no change. I
installed Metaedit and searched for defaultlogondomain and found that all of
the entries were pointing at the domain name and not the server name so I
can't figure out why this is happening.
I'm running out or ideas on this one. When should I go from here?

| Is Windows integrated authentication also enabled ?
For the default domain to be used you must force use of
the clear text (basic) login.

| Windows integrated authentication is not enabled. Basic authentication is the
only authentication method enabled.
