Avoid login through Windows integrated authentication
Vote:
I have enabled integrated Windows authentication (through the multiplexing provider) on my EPiServer site so now I am able to log in to the site with my Windows account. However, I thought that if I am already logged on to Windows with that user I would not have to log in again each time I open the site. Am I doing something wrong since it does not work like that? Or is there some other way to avoid having to log in each time I open the site?

Can you not just check the 'Enable automatic logon' checkbox when you login?

Hi,
#20465
I'm guessing you've already enabled Integrated Windows Authentication in the IIS. Have you tried to just use the Windows membership and role provider (instead of multiplexing)?

So if I use only Windows Authentication I don't have to login? However, it is not an option, I need multiplexing because I need to be able to use the SQL provider also.
My site does not have an 'enable automatic logon' checkbox, but maybe I should implement that..

The problem is that you cannot mix FormsAuthentication and WindowsAuthentication in the same site, you would have to select either.
One could possibly write a custom authentication handler that performs the NT Challenge/Response on its own before the FormsAuthentication kicks in, but that
would require quite some coding and is not so easily done.
