Don't think I don't agree with you.

But in the list of problems, having to sign-in occasionally isn't a major
one for me - I'm doing it all the time.

( I was being a bit tongue-in-cheek hence the "radical solution" comment)

Mike I agree this is "a solution" but this becomes a problem when your
boss says "hey why do I have to login now, I did not have to before" If
my boss perceives this as a problem that needs to be fixed. Then I need
to fix it. MS says that you should not have to login in again and if your
IE setting are correct it will work.

Initially when the client enters there WSS 3.0 Site they are receiving
a login prompt at the first main site, then they are able to access
all sites without any loging prompts. However, if they want to access
a document in a document library for reading or editing they have to
type in the username and password. None of these people are accessing
the WSS Sites from a shared domain like an extranet site. I was
looking all over the web for various solutions, such as Integrated
Authentication Method and Making the Site Trusted. The read only
solution to open up documents is unacceptable as they want to open
them up in both edit and read only. None of these solutions have
worked for this problem. Does anyone have any other suggestions?
