If you want to do this, you will need to enable SubAuthentication. The steps are detailed in the PDF above under the SubAuthentication heading. However, this is not a recommended configuration, and instead you should choose a complex password, and manually set this in the IIS Metabase, and in the machine's SAM database.

Unfortunately after
doing this, I still have the same issue. I will double check everything again today, ACL's and config files to see if there is something I have missed.

would do with a normal account. After that, go to the UI of IIS and set the account and PWD the same way. its that simple.
