I created my first website in ASP.Net, and I'm trying to run it and run it on our intranet here at work. Now I have almost everything, and I came to the checkpoint.
I need to use Windows Authentication - a requirement from my team - so I went through the process of setting up the site. I have all configured and attempts to access the site (non-localhost) and have received a dialog asking me to specify my credentials. I cannot understand, for me, why this is so. I made sure that IE8 is configured to send credentials, I ensured that Windows Auth is configured both in my web.config file and on the server. as soon as I enter my login information, I get to the site without any problems.
When I initially set up the page, I selected pass-through authentication and tested the connection. During this test, I received an error message stating that access to the website path could not be verified. This is my only guess, but unable to figure out, fix it.
I thank you for your help and will be happy to answer any questions as soon as I see them. Again, I'm just trying to get around this dialog box.
