Unless a user is logged into the domain, they will always get the popup box.
Period.

If they are loggeed in, from outside, the machine can be set up to help you.
Most users home machines are not set up to automagically have the browser
pick up domain account, however. I am not sure what has to be set, as it has
been ages since I have been on the SE side of the world.

> Developed a web application which adopts a custom security model which
displays a login page and requests a username/password combination. The
username works in a mixed-mode of usernames matched with the windows login
name and some extra accounts (similar to SQL mixed-mode security). Web
application is executed both in the corporate intranet and externally on the
web.
> Getting user complaints about having to login to the web application when
they have already logged-on to windows. I have coded a challenge/response
(response.status=401) to get a user's window login through the
ServerVariables. This seems to work OK for the intranet access. If the
user's windows account is not located in the application database then I
redirect to the standard login page for the username/password combination.
When the application is executed across the internet through a firewall, the
user is prompted by IE to enter the windows domain, username, and password.
There seems to be no mechanism to avoid this because of the
challenge/response code. I wish that with external access from the internet
that users are automatically directed to the application login screen and
not faced with the IE windows authentication dialog.
