RWW

Good afternoon!

Taking a bit of a vacation for the next three days...not that anyone cares!
But, I thought that I would clear up a few things in my head.

Regarding RWW (Remote Web Workplace) in SBS2003 Standard....I have it set up
at a new customer and everything is working just swell. Well, I think! It
seems that users are asked for credentials too many times. Maybe it is how
things are set up on the /remote folder in IIS...

Anyway, the user enters http://mail.mydomain.com/remote and the first pop-up
appears (the usual pop up when basic authentication is configured....title
bar indicates 'connecting to mail.mydomain.com'). We enter the credentials
in the domainname\username format and then the password. We are then
brought to the web page where we enter user name (without the domain name)
and password and hit enter and then that popup windows appears again
('connecting to mail.mydomain.com'...domainname\user name and then
password). Once we enter the user name and password (again...) we come to
the page with the links.

Is this *normal*?

Thanks,
