In IE8: Internet options-> security->Custom Level and then all the way down at the bottom is 'user authentication' which should be 'automatic logon only in intranet zone' - if you wanted to, you can change the settings there. But, you don't need this to happen - you just wanted to know "Cant see why IP would fail." - it fails for reasons outlined below... hope this helps. -----Original Message----- From: thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:thin-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Kevin Stewart Sent: 25 May 2010 22:53 To: thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [THIN] Re: IIS Web Interface Issue Sounds like your clients are internal, since you're using Windows Integrated auth. Internal clients in the same domain as the WIA IIS box will try to use Kerberos if conditions are right, like using a host name that matches the object's service principal name. You can't assign an SPN to an IP address, so Kerberos fails and there's a good chance you'll get prompted for credentials.
