Alright, now that I figured out how to let anonymous users to create the site, I no longer want to go this route.  I probably should have thought of this in the first place but either way, I need help with a different problem.

I want to implement an automatic login for all of the Intranet users.  I have searched the forums but I can't seem to find the exact answer to my problem.  I have tried altering the settings in ISS to not allow anonymous users and to use the integrated windows service, but this does not seem to do the trick.  I've also seen that maybe this can be done with a group policy of sorts, but I am not that familiar with Active Directory.  Is there a step by step tutorial somewhere that would help me setup an automatic login for 4.6.2?  Also, do my users have to login at least once before automatic login works all the time or can my users just open the Intranet without having to do anything?  Thanks for the help.

If the second <add name="Authentication... /> is uncommented and the site is either in their Trusted or Intranet sites list in the Internet Options (this can be forced through Group Policy) on their computer then AD users should be automatically logged in. There's a pinned post at the top of this forum that has links to a couple of sets of instructions. Unfortunately if you want to allow users outside of the intranet to access the site you can't have intranet users logged in automatically. There is another pinned post where some have posted their tips and tricks and one of them was to do similar to what you're looking to do but it would require changing the code and recompiling it. His code was based on the IP of the computer (Intranet computers are going to have a set range of IP addresses that internet computers won't). It's a really good idea but I haven't included it in the code because it would be different for every host. Perhaps in a future version I can add it as a possible setting now that the provider is separated from the core.

EDIT: I just re-read your post and the first part of my answer would be a step back from what you want to do.

Here's a link to the thread I'm talking about. http://www.dotnetnuke.com/Community/ForumsDotNetNuke/tabid/795/forumid/89/threadid/55339/scope/posts/Default.aspx

I am posting this just in case anyone is wondering how I did.  Automatic login seems to be working alright for me and I am no longer using mixed mode.  What I did was uncomment this line in the </httpModules>:

<add name="Authentication" type="DotNetNuke.Authentication.ActiveDirectory.HttpModules.AuthenticationModule, DotNetNuke.Authentication.ActiveDirectory" />

After that, everyone has to login as domain\username at least once when the popup appears.  After that, they must add the Intranet to their trusted local intranet site within Internet Options in IE7.  I have tried this with quite a few people and it seems to be successful.  Thanks again for your help Mike.
