prompted for UID and PW even with save box checked

M

mmac

why is it that when I enter my UID and PW into the logon box and check the
box that says to save it, it never does?
this happens on the LAN and from outside the LAN. THe password is NEVER
saved.
Do I have something configures wrong?
the server has 2002 extensions and is a win2k server.
it also pops up with "www.domain.com no longer available". but that is
another thread

Passwords used by FP are "stored" using IE
In IE use Tools > Internet Options > Security
Click on 'Trusted' and on 'Custom Level'
Make sure the selection at the bottom is set to:
'Automatic logon with current username and password' and click OK
Click on 'Sites' and add your site URL in the 'Add this Web Site to the Zone', and OK, OK
- note: you may have to unselect the option: Require server verification (https)... to add your site

Thank you
It may not be the same logon as I use on the lan, Is that going to be a
problem? After all it wouldn't be the "current" username and password that I
want to use, Just the same one as I used last time I edited the site.

Each site is stored separately - nothing to do w/ your lan
