Hi,
maybe I have a solution. Your're using the isapi_redirect.dll and access your contexts via IIS 4, right? Have you tried accessing your pages using Tomcat directly? Does it work then? I have a machine running W2k, IIS 5 and Tomcat - and had exactly the same problem: The dialog box appeared asking for username and password but you were unable to login. But the thing did work when accessing the page through Tomcat on normal HTTP. What helped was the following: I defined exactly the same users within W2k having guest roles for IIS 5. And then the IIS did let through the requests because he "knew" the users and their correct passwords. So the problem seems to be IIS (in my case version 5 - maybe it's the same with 4) or the isapi_redirect.dll neglegting the requests because it doesn't recognize the users/passwords if they are not defined within W2k in a parallel way. bestWISHES Ingo > -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- > Von: Samuel Rochas [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Gesendet: Freitag, 16.
