Author Basic Authentication + Windows XP SP2
Townsend

2007-06-25, 1:20 pm

I am using a development machine with Windows XP SP2 and I am trying to use
Basic Authentication. I get the message, “The server localhost at localhost
requires a username and password.” I enter my username and password, three
times before getting the following error message.

HTTP 401.1 - Unauthorized: Logon Failed
Internet Information Services

The LDAP is used in other places and is working fine. Please let me know if
I’ve missed something or should check something in the setup.

401.1 manning something wrong with the logon credential.
e.g. wrong password/username, no privileges, etc

enable logon auditing and see you can find more clue in event log.
