My goal:
Have domain users automatically log in to the portal with their domain credentials - they shouldn't have to click a login button or anything.
non-domain users can login with a username / password

What I have installed:
OS: win 2008 R2
IIS: 7.5
DNN 6.02.00
Active directory authentication module 5.00.04
application pool I created, .net v2.0, classic pipeline, identity of network service
web site I created that uses the app pool I created.



What it does:
The first time I connect to the site after a reboot, it asks for a domain user / password.
After entering a valid value, it brings the window right back..
After a few tries, I get a 401.1 error screen.
If I close the browser and try again, I get to the default home page.
I can click login and get in with the super user id / pw or I can click windows login and get in with a domain user / pw

If I stop the web site, stop the app pool, then start them both up, I don't get the auto login user request / 401.1 failure (I get the default DNN home page).
If I click on the server in IIS manager and select restart, then try to connect to the site with a browser, I still don't get the auto login failure.
So it seems like once the auto login fails, I have to reboot the server to get it to try the auto login process again.
And I don't know why the authentication fails - I'm giving it a valid domain user / pw.

Any ideas on how to get this to work or where to start debugging it?

Thanks

John

When you attempt to login automatically it creates a cookie. All you need to do to clear the cookies on your computer to force the auto-login process again.

When you get the pop-up what format are you entering your credentials? It has to be either DOMAIN\username or username@domain. You can't just enter your username. That's just an FYI because we really don't want the IIS pop-up anyway.

To get rid of the IIS pop-up you need to have the site in either your Trusted or Intranet sites list in your internet options on your computer.

Thanks.

I was going to the site by the ip address.

Apparently things work differently if you hit it by name.

I go the auto login thing working.

Thanks again.

I don't know if I've ever tried it by anything other than localhost (when developing) or the URL that it's installed to. I'll have to try that to see if I can duplicate what you're seeing.
