If the users log on to the local machine then that is the login tha SQL
Server expects. You can workaround this problem by creating a user account
on the SQL Server machine with the same name and password as the users who
are logging in and grant that login a login within SQL Server. This should
allow them to log in to SQL Server using the local machine account.

Outside of that I am not sure there is a way, unless you can get the IIS
anonymous login to be used by these users.
