I have a MOSS 2007 farm running on windows server 2003 R2 64 bit and IIS 6. When I try to connect to the farm locally on the server, no matter what site, CA or any of the SharePoint web apps I get prompted for creds and when I enter them everything is fine. But, when I connect from my workstation I am not prompted and my windows creditials get passed succesfully.

The web sites directory security in IIS is set to integrated windows auth. I am not using kerberos.

This happens from all the servers in this sharepoint farm.

Why is it prompting for my creditials on the server, and not on the client? As far as I can tell it shouldn't be prompting me, but passing my windows creditials. – Bob Dec 28 '11 at 20:14

Check that the sites are recognized as Intranet Zone sites in the browser on the servers – Mathias R. Jessen Dec 28 '11 at 20:25
Doh, that was it. I should have known that, but I was looking for a bigger problem. Thanks!!! – Bob Dec 28 '11 at 20:34

Check that the sites are recognized as Intranet Zone sites in the browser on the servers.

If Internet Explorer recognizes them as Internet sites and not Intranet sites, single sign on features will not work, and you'll be prompted for credentials
