Re: Outlook 2007 Prompting for Password

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry



This has worked for me also especially re: oab & autodiscover virtual
directories, though no need to restart IIS.

You have made me the happiest man in the world right now. I am so happy I
could kiss you. I have been trying to figure this out for two weeks now and
my users are starting to get fed up with the "hassle" of the prompt. I have
tried the SAN certificates, putting the sites in the trusted and local
intranet zones, etc. and that stupid prompt kept coming up. Until now. It
was such an issue that I came in on the weekend to work.

Words cannot describe the gratitude I have, but I will give it a try...

Thank you very much.

How in the hell did you find this solution?

I had an issue similar to this. Win2k3 Ex07. All of my Outlook 2007
users were getting prompted over and over for the username and
password. It wasn't checking the certificate that they had installed
via internet explorer. To fix the problem, I opened IIS on the
Exchange server and checked the following directories under the
default website (the root site(default web site), oab, autodiscover).
Under the directory security tab, click Edit in the Secure
Communications section. I had the require SSL checked and the 128bit
encryption, but under Client Certificates, it was set to ignore. Once
I changed that to Accept for each of the folders, stopped and started
IIS, I stopped being prompted all the time for credentials. Hopefully
this will help someone in the future.
