Windows Server 2012, IIS, and Digest

digestwindowswindows-server-2012-r2

I recently got TWO IIS servers running perfectly smooth. I was able to access these from the outside with no problem, however as of a few days ago, out of no where.. when I try to access IIS Server A from the outside, I get a login prompt for DIGEST.

Digest is not installed under IIS in the Add Roles and Features" tool. The other server still works just fine. I have not done any updates since I booted them so I don't know why this is happening now 🙁

I am new to Windows Server 2012 and I don't have much of a clue where to go from here. Any pointers in the right direction will be most helpful.

Thanks.

It is a fault by Windows Server 2012 R2. You have to uninstall the workfolder feature. It took me several nights.
