I have a website that is suppose to use Windows Authentication. When I access
the website the login box pops up and allows me to type in my login and
password, but then I hit Enter it pops back up again like I never his Enter.
I'm using IIS 6.0 on a member (Windows 2003 R2) server.

Any ideas?

Look at the IIS log file entry for your failed request and report the
status, substatus, and Win32 error codes.

It works by default, so there is some misconfiguration somewhere and
the log entry will give clues about which direction to troubleshoot.

David,
I checked the IIS logs and I'm getting "401 3 5" after each try. I verified
that I have full access to the directory where the virtual directory is
pointing.
Any ideas?

thanks,
Carlton.

Is the server logging failed login attempts (at OS level) ?
If so, what is being recorded there (if not perhaps make it so)?
The account may not be granted (directly/indirectly) the
needed login user right
