Re: Authentication Question

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance

I would imagine that this user is (as his domain name) a member of an AD
Group that has permissions to access the site (if he hasn't been allocated
as a domain user directly).

So he has two ways to access the site (local user / domain name) and now
that he has once accessed the site with his domain account, future accesses
will use the same information.

(Not answering the final question because I a) don't know the answer and b)
I think the reason for the present functionaliy lies elsewhere)

We have a mixed environment were some users authenticate to AD and some
don't. The users that don't log on to there pc's via a local account. One
such user clicked his sharepoint link and was prompted to authenticate and
did so using <domain>\<username> and then entered his password. While
doing so, he checked the box to remember username and password. Since
then, he has not been prompted again.

My question, when you check this box, where is your username and password
stored?
