asp_web_howto thread: NT Logon Authentication


Message #1 by dean.hastings@u... on Wed, 22 May 2002 09:55:38
I have to enter NT username and password 3 times before the page is opened.
Does anyone know why this is? 
I would like to be prompted once only. Here is the code I am using.

<%
Response.Status=("401 Access Denied")
Response.Write "Logged on: " & Request.ServerVariables("LOGON_USER")
Response.end
%>

You always prompt the user.. Which has a try limit of 3.
Write it like this:

If Request.ServerVariables("LOGON_USER") =3D "" Then
	Response.Status=3D("401 Access Denied")
Else
	Response.Write "Logged On:" &
Request.ServerVariables("LOGON_USER")
End If

Goodluck,
Jeroen Diderik

Try adding Response.AddHeader "WWW-Authenticate", "NTLM" to specifically 
request the NT logon details.  This, along with turning on both 'Allow 
anonymous' and 'NT Challenge/Response' in the Directory Security settings 
in IIS should do the job - you shouldn't be prompted for the logon details 
at all.  It works for me anyway!  (I assume this is for intranet?)

Thanks for the responses,
I think I may be attempting to do something a little unusual.
Here is the background. My web application is running on an Intranet.
Authentication method in IIS5 is "Integrated Windows Authentication" only.
User A is logged on to their PC and can access restricted pages without 
being prompted (Request.ServerVariables("LOGON_USER") verified against a
database table). I would like to give User B the ability to login to web
application through User A browser without logging out User A from PC.

I hope this makes sense!
Dean.

Then you will need Basic Authentication enabled.

Goodluck,
