IIS 6.0 Basic Authentication and Integrated Windows Authentication
- Thread starter megajune
- Start date
Integrated authentication uses your login credentials to authenticate you on the website your browsing. However, if these login credentials aren't made available to the browser, site fails out (prolly a 403 error).
In IE, click on Tools->Internet Options->Security. Click on Internet, then click on Custom Level. Scroll all the way to the bottom option of this window, which is User Authentication. If you want to automatically logon to the site, click Automatic logon with current username and password ...
On a personal note, I don't recommend that option - any site requesting credentials will try your current username and password ... use the Prompt for username and password option instead.
