Does the loging box pop up 3 times and then give you a 401 error? If so you
might be running into the "Loopback Check" feature of Windows Server 2003.

If you are using a non-IE browser, this will be the reason. You might
try explicitly setting your credentials (username/password) in the
application. Also, if you are utilizing ASP.NET, you can create a key
for credentials or set the default authentication in the web.config
file and reference it from w/in the ASP.NET application. Hope this
helps.
