Is it possible to bypass windows authentication.
In the sense that say
i access http://xyz.myschool.edu/testsite
I get an asp page where in i ask some credentials. user name and password. after that if the person goes to http://xyz.myschool.edu he should not get the windows authentication dlg box.

if he does not go to testsite and goes directly to http://xyz.myschool.edu he shud be asked the normal username and password of integrated windows authentication.

Is that possible???
expecting replies

Hi:

Most of the time, each server application has its own security settings.

You may have more than one asp.net application running in the same server, e.g. www.myrootsite.edu and www.myrootsite.edu/site1 could be configured as two independent sites, each having it's security settings. Configured this way, what you plan to do could be considered a security violation.

Bye.
