I need some assistance with the enabling windows Authentication on our Intranet site. I actually had it all working by following the post :
http://www.dotnetnuke.com/Community/ForumsDotNetNuke/tabid/795/forumid/89/threadid/53005/scope/posts/Default.aspx


Then on of my team members deleted a child portal and the main portal became inaccessible taking the following error and the only way to get the site back up was to comment out the AuthenticationModule in the httpModules element. 

<

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

Value cannot be null.
Parameter name: value

Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.

Exception Details: System.ArgumentNullException: Value cannot be null.
Parameter name: value

Source Error:

An unhandled exception was generated during the execution of the current web request. Information regarding the origin and location of the exception can be identified using the exception stack trace below.

Has anyone come across this before? There seem to be a ton of post on the forum about enabling Windows Authentication but not a published setup doc. My specs are as follows:

DNN 4..5.1 Source
Windows Server 2003 in the Active Directory 
IIS v. 6.0
SQL Server 2005
ASP.NET 2.0.50727

I have tried disabling and enabling anonymous access at the site level with different combination of authentication mode forms and windows with no luck keep the AuthenticationModule uncommented since the child portal was deleted. Also we are getting mixed results with 2000 clients and IE6 and XP clients IE7 all have the trusted zones updated.

Thanks in advance any guidance would be greatly appreciated

Dan
