I have configured a Web site on server 2003 standard edition. I have used
the default settings. When I access this web site from internet everything is
running OK & also that server but,when i open this site in LAN I get a window
and says "The server test.net at level_15 or view_access requires a username
and password. Warning: This server is requesting that your username and
password be sent in an insecure manner (basic authentication without a secure
connection)." It let me to input the username and password.afet i enter a
USername & password of server but that is not valid...
How do I modify the web site settings to access the web site without any
window?
Thank you!

By "without any window" I assume you mean you want to enable anonymous
access to your IIS 6.0 website. Here is an article on doing just that. Hope
it helps.

Sorry, I just noticed you said it works from the Internet so anonymous would
already be properly configured. Serves me right for reading too fast. :)
The error message you report is not a standard IIS error message but sounds
more like a proxy server device that is attempting to forward your request to
the IIS server. Sometimes the title bar of these kind of messages will give
you an IP address or device name that is sending the error. If not, I would
run network monitor and capture the traffic from the time you send the
request to the time you get the request back. Look to see where that error
message is coming from (what IP address) and focus your energy on that
device's configuration.

Lots of thanks for your reply, i cant understand this issue i give you all
details
router adress:192.168.2.1
server Adress:192.168.2.2
Client adress :192.168.2.3 to 192.168.2.50
internet provide to all system include server from router means my gateway
is 192.168.2.1 & DNS also 192.168.2.1.
My website is configured on 192.168.2.2 when i browse sie on 192.168.2.2
everything is properly running also outer side(internet) but when i browse
from any client system that message is come.
I hope you will give me a proper solution
If you are unable to get a network capture to determine where the error
message is coming from, I would look towards the proxy server on your LAN or
the proxy settings on your browser. If you are confident you have neither
(won't know for sure unless you did a network capture) then there is one
other thing I could think of.
You said that you are able to connect to the webserver from the Internet
which tells me that if the web address is configured as 192.168.2.2 then you
must have some port forwarding going on at the front end (router). I don't
know how you are trying to access the website from the LAN but you can try
http://192.168.2.2 (or whatever the IP address is for the website) to see if
that will get you around whatever is intercepting your request to the
webserver. What may be happening is you type in
http://www.thenameofyoursite.com and a DNS server resolves the name to the
external IP address, your packet gets sent out the router, then back in to
get forwarded to the local server. Entering in http://192.168.2.2 should be
a good check. If that works, then its a resolution problem on the local LAN
that can be resolved through internal DNS entry or a local host file on the
client.
Let us know which of the options are checked.
The major difference between the internal clients and external clients is
that the Internal Client could resolve your site as a Intranet Site.
IE has a setting to AutoLogon using credentials, you can find this if you go
to IE-->Tools-->Internet Options-->Security tab-->(select any zone)-->Custom
Level button-->Scroll all the way to the bottom and under the User
Authentication Node, "Automatic logon only in Intranet Zone".
Did you try any other Browsers to see what happens. What version of IE are
you using?

Thanks for guidence i would like to inform you that any proxy server is not
configure there, & i can't open web site by IP (http://192.168.2.2) because
web site name is configured in host header value & but port is 80 & default
web site is disable & please suggest me how to capture & how to know where
the error message is coming from, I think this is DNS resolution problem or
the service of HTTP is configure local login on router how to resolve this
Below the line:
127.0.0.1 localhost
Enter in the IP address, a few spaces and the name of your website (the
hostheadername on the website).
So it would be something like:
192.168.2.2 hostheadername
Save the file.
Open up a command prompt by going to "Start, Run...," and typing: CMD
Type: Ping hostheadername [where hostheadername is what you entered in the
hosts. file above]
Verify the IP address reply is the same as what you entered in the hosts. file
If it is then launch your web browser and try going to http://hostheadername
Thanks for your guidence, I allredy put this setting in host file but issue
is still pending, when i ping my hostheader name then they reply me from my
static IP & static IP is configured on my router. & i opened the port for
HTTP on router, i previously told you on the outer side my web site running
without any problem,
Pls suggest me, I hope you give me a excellent sollution.

This is a networking issue. I am more than happy to help you further but
let's take this off the IIS newsgroup because it is not IIS related. Feel
free to send me an email and we can work through the problem.
