I password protected a directory within my web.  When
logged in our own network, I am unable to get
authenticated when I type in my username and password.  I
receive an HTTP 401.1 error. However, when I access the
same site off our network, I am authenticated and page the
loads.  Why is it that I cannot get authenticated when
accessing this directory within our own network?  I added
the group to allow local logon within the Local Policy but
that didn't work.  Could someone please advise.

Thanks.

What authentication you using ?
Look at IIS log file for more clues.
Try basic authentcation......

It seems as though I have tried ALL types of
authentication.  Digest, Basic, etc.  I found an article
on Microsoft explaining my situation.  The article is
located at http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?
scid=kb;en-us;827991&Product=iis60.  Although it describes
my problem, I am not quite sure how to check to verify if
it related to my situation.  Could you please advise.

That article apply to basic authentication involving domain auth. You can
skip that by specifying <domain name>\username. do you have domain ? or
standalone ?

It's quite different for each type of authentication method. I suggest you
open IIS MMC - F1 - help to read about each auth method. the most simple one
will be basic. 401.1 mean login failed. so it's either username / password
is wrong. You can also enable security auditing for logon event to trace.
