Windows Authentication!!

V

Vai2000

I have a web application (ASP.NET 2.0) hosted on my box (IIS 5.1). I am
using Windows Authentication and have turned off Anonymous access on IIS
server.When I try to connect to the website, it works fine. When anyone else
in the domain tries accessing the site, they are prompted for username,
password, which when given does not bring up the page. However, when I give
my username/password from their machine, it brings up the page.
Question is when I am using Windows Authentication and have Integrated
Windows Authentication option checked, anyone who's already signed in the
domain should not be prompted for the username and password.
If prompted for the username and password and if given, they should be able
to enter the site.

Why are they not able to access the site?????

TIA

I'm going to take a guess and say it has to do with permissions on the
application folder itself. Are you by chance an Administrator on the
server? Is "Everyone" or the ASPNET/IUSR account allowed read access on
the application directory? It's been my experience that that's
generally the cause of what your'e seeing.
