Windows Authentication kept asking for username/password

asp.netiisiis-6windowswindows-server-2003

I am deploying my web application on iis6. I kept receive this "windows security" pop up to enter user name and password.. I have already disabled anonymous user, and checked integrated windows authentication but it just wont "automatically" login.

What should i do?

I have check the security settings-local intranet zone: "login as automatic logon only in Intranet zone". Also my production server is a standalone server, and hence might not hold AD account and credentials.

For Internet Explorer, you might have to add the server address to the local intranet zone. IE often has a hard time detecting local intranet servers on its own, so you might have to manually add your site to that list. You can do that manually in IE settings or you can use group policies to manage a list of intranet servers within an AD domain. You can view the zone IE has chosen for your site from the menu File/Properties.

For Firefox, you have to tell FF to forward your network credentials to that site. in about:config you have to add the sites to the settings

network.automatic-ntlm-auth.trusted-uris

and

network.negotiate-auth.trusted-uris
