[Javascript] Forcing user to login using Windows authentication

Create a server script that actually gets the report, not a user. The user
will go to an asp server scripting page which runs the report script under
machine permissions instead of the user's permissions. You shouldn't have to
turn off NT this way.

Subject: [Javascript] Forcing user to login using Windows authentication


   When my IIS was running with Windows authentication, users are prompted
with a popup login window when they first
attempt to get a screen from the server.  After the server logs in, the
server keeps the user's name linked with the
browser session. Because our server generates a report that needs to be
accessible to anonymous clients we've had to
disable Windows authentication.  I'd like to activate Windows user
authentication on demand to identify a user that
accesses the system.  Sure, we could run IIS on two PCs but our current
hardware (ISDN router) doesn't support this.
   Any suggestions?
