Integrated Windows Authentication Error,

Hi,

I have three w2k3 servers (live, staging and development) currently being
setup to service our Intranet. I have built the servers is an identical
fashion and use Integrated Windows Authentication to determine who can see 
certain links on the page.

When initially setup all servers were working fine. However, the staging
server has recently requested my logon credentials. When I give them I get
the authorisation page error and can't go through to the web pages.

I can get to the web pages if I change the authentication mode to say basic.

I am set up as an administrator on all three servers and have access to all
the folders that the code for the Intranet are stored in.

What is particularly baffling, is that we have not gone live with any of the
servers yet - so nobody has used them or added  / removed code since the
initial setup.

The network guys suggest removing then adding iis as they belive is is
corrupt.

Is there any else I should try before scraping my web server setup and
starting again!


Thanks

Is your test server in a domain or is it standalone? Do you have anonymous
enabled or is it authentication-required.

What does the security event log say when you fail to log in ? I'm
interested in the authentication protocol in use.

I recently encountered similar issues.
The problem for me was that the content requested was in a directory that web users were not granted permissions...so authentication was requested.  Try examining the permissions...even if it's a directory referred to via an ISAPI filter.  Altering permissions fixed my issues.
