Windows Auth doesn't seem to work right

Had this problem with 5.5R2 as well after a hotfix install for Win2K8R2 from microsoft, at the time, I just rolled back the hotfix and all went back to normal.

Anyway, I installed Kentico 6 on our intranet and followed the directions to enable Windows Auth (Again please note: this is on the same machine where we had 5.5 with Windows Auth running).

In Chrome and firefox, when I go to the site I get the browser dialog for username and password. I enter my username and password (without domain) and I can login - not the expected behavior, but at least I can login.

In IE (IE9) - I also get the username and password dialog, but no matter how I try to enter the username and password (and domain) - _ cannot login.

Yes, Windows Auth is turned on in IIS.

RE:Windows Auth doesn't seem to work right

Hi,

In Chrome and FF it is usual that you are asked for the AD credentials - so it is expected behavior (there is a workaround I know for FF - by changing the FF config and adding the site to it).

Regarding IE - you need to add the site as trusted site to its configuration too. I think I already posted it in another thread you started - have you tried it?

Best regards,
Juraj Ondrus
