IIS5 Basic Authentication

[Johnnie100]

I am using basic authentication on my IIS5 MI intranet site to:
(i) authenticate the user
(ii) obtain their windows Login which is used to link to the user's application specific ID

Users from the site's default domain are able successfully enter the site on submission of valid credentials

Users from any other domain are not.

It appears that basic authentication imposes a restriction on access from outside the site's default domain??
Do you know how I can get round this? (Without attempting to use Challenge/Response authentication?)

Thanks in advance.

I think you have to establish a trust with the other domains, or you can setup the authentication parameters to be less restrictive... If no joint trust is established it will connect anyways.
