iis security : IIS Basic Authentication & Windows 98 machine

I just configured Basic Authentication on a few areas of
my web server and it works fine, except for people who
are on a Windows 98 machine. When they try to log in, the
login box keeps reappearing instead of accepting the
user/password info. Did I miss a setting somewhere? What
do I need to check?
Thanks,

It is a 401 - authentication required.

Thanks,
Jennifer

for those request.

Are the Win98 users supplying domain account credetials, or user accounts
local to the IIS server?
