I have selected 'Integrated Windows Authentication' for a directory on my website, which I can log into through my browser on a windows 2000 / windows NT machine, but I can't connect to it on my home computer (which is windows 98).

The browser I am using is IE5.5, I don't want to use Basic authentication for security reasons, and I can't use Digest authentication because the computer is not a domain controller.

Does anyone know what the problem is? <--&quot;Didn't your code work? You must have made a mistake when you pasted it.&quot; - Mark Hazen-->

I'll take a stab/guess. How about if you install the Win2K client on your Win98 machine?

Do you mean overwrite w98 with w2k? Because I only have a 2 Gb harddrive (otherwise I would have installed w2k on it instead in the first place) <--&quot;Didn't your code work? You must have made a mistake when you pasted it.&quot; - Mark Hazen-->

On the Windows 2K source CD, there is a 'Clients' folder. In there is a Windows 2000 client for older (non-2K) Windows 32-bit OS's. It was designed to be installed onto machines in an existing 9x enivornment to access a newly installed 2k Server domain. The difference between it and the standard Microsoft Client for Microsoft Networks, is it gives you fuller access and integration into AD and AD DNS. I don't have all my resources handy so I can't detail more, but I suspect it may 'talk better' with the systems you're trying to access.

I'm heading out on vacatation tomorrow :-) so I won't be around to help more for a week, but please let me know if this works.

OK, I'll try it.

HI!

Your problem is, probably, not related to OS version, but related to the face that your 98 machine is connecting from the Internet, and is not logged on to the domain.

Are you using &quot;Chalange&quot; authentication (the second check-box in one of IIS configuration tabs)?

Check also your firewall configuration.

Bye

The client extensions didn't work, and it can't be because I'm going through the internet, as my brother can log on to the site using his windows 2000 machine through the internet at home.

I'm just using the 'Integrated windows authentication' checkbox in ISM (I believe it used to be called NT challenge/response) <--&quot;Didn't your code work? You must have made a mistake when you pasted it.&quot; - Mark Hazen-->
