Implementing NT authentication

My server admin followed the instructions in http://www.adobe.com/go/tn_18516 and now AUTH_USER returns the current user's info. Perfect.

But it only works on one single subfolder within the website. All other folders within the site continue to return blank for AUTH_USER. How is that even possible? I tried copying the folder that works to another location and it didn't work. AUTH_USER still comes back blank.

Any suggestions on what to check? TIA.

Sorry, we solved it. He had turned off anonymous access only on that one folder instead of at the root level.

Keep in mind that permissions like these can be set all the way down to the file level. Just because a folder is set up with certain permissions does not necessarilly mean that all of the files within that folder are set up that way.
