Hi,

On the same machine, I have created two web sites, the first site requires
client cert and is mapped to a windows account. The second site is
restricted to be called by the first site by limiting the IP address to
localhost. If I enable windows authentication for the second site, I will
get 401 (unauthorized). Can anyone tell me how to pass the windows
credential of the first site when calling second site?

Thanks.

Hello FA,

so you are using the HttpWebRequest classes?

Requests are anonymous then - you have to attach credentials to the request
- this is why you get the 401.

Have a look at the Credential property of HttpWebRequest

CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials is for Windows integrated auth, like:

myHttpWebRequest.Credentials = CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;

HTH
