Hi all,

I have a scenario where I need to have both local users and domain users
accessing a site. I've set this up fine, I've:

1) set the Auth Mode to Basic
2) added the 'Domain Users' group to a local group
3) set security on the home folder to the local group created in step 2.

Everything works fine, local and domain users can log in. The only problem
is I'd like to allow domain users to just enter 'username', not
'domain/username'. Not a huge issue but I know I'll get 101 annoying calls
if I don't.

So anyone know how I can do this? I think it's probably not possible but...

I've tried setting the default domain through IIS Manager, this does allow
domain users just enter their username but it also stops local users from
logging on at all.

If anyone can shed any light, I'd appreciate it.

Thanks,
John
