Oh and if the site is in the Trusted Sites list then you shouldn't be getting the pop-up. Unless.... what browser are you using? IE, Firefox, Chrome, or other?

We're using IE as out browser and I checked and the site is indeed in the "Trusted Zone". I made the changes to the web.config you suggested. Now, when my previously logged out user follows the link

http://<DotNetNuke_Install>/DesktopModules/AuthenticationServices/ActiveDirectory/WindowsSignin.aspx

they still get the Windows log in prompt. Entering the username and password takes them to the Home page with minimum permissions and does not show them as being logged in.

I can now log out a previously logged in user but then going to the login page still does not give them option of using a "Windows Signin". It's DNN Forms only.

I'm still conecerned that I can't configure Active Directory Authentication on the Extensions page. I get the same error I received previously. I considered removing the AD Authentication Extension and then reloading it but can't see how that is done.

The same error as you had originally? Did you leave the line un-commented? If you want to remove the provider you can via the Host->Extensions menu.

Yes, the same error as previously. I didn't change any web.config lines.

I think I'm going backwards... I just tried uninstalling the DNN ActiveDirectory extensions using the "Host/Extensions" page and reinstalled version 5.02. Now I can't bring up the site and get the following error:

Server Error in '/' Application.

I replaced files from backup and have my site running again but I'm still faced with the same issues as I began this thread with... I get the same error when I try to configure ADSIAuthentication and, on the login page, there is no option to use "Windows Login". If anyone has any other ideas of what to try next to fix this issue I would be very grateful. Thanks.
