Default Login Name / Password in IIS 5.1

Hi. We use IIS 5.1 on Windows XP pro to serve a simple website to our office. We need to secure it so that only our team has access. Have tried unchecking "Allow Anonymous Access" in IIS, but this causes windows vista machines to require a login with a username and password dialog even though the person is logged into windows with an account that is present on the server. Checking "remember password" doesn't work... the next time accessing the page requires a username and password to be entered again.

All of our XP machines pass the login name and password automatically as long as the account they are logged in to windows with with exists on the server. Anyone know how to get Vista to do this too?

Thanks for any help!

home premium is like xp home. it has very limited networking features.

In particular it does not have the ablity to properley join a domain or to properley use active directory

thats probably why it doesnt work wirth your site
