Hi,

I am new to both this UG and Linux.

I have installed SuSE 8.1 and run with KDE3.
I use Mozilla as my browser but am having some problems accessing a few areas 
on our Intranet.

The pages in question use NT Challenge/Response Passowrds (I think also called 
NTLM).  Mozilla gives an error as below:
==========================
401.2 Unauthorized: Logon Failed due to server configuration

This error indicates that the credentials passed to the server do not matcht
 he credentials required to log on to the server. This is usually caused byn
 ot sending the proper WWW-Authenticate header field.
==========================

I have got every other aspect of Linux working perfectly and never need tob
 oot into W2K, but this is really bugging me.  I have done plenty of 
searches, but can't find any help.

Cheers,

Chris.
=================================
Do not walk behind me, for I may not lead. Do not walk ahead for I may notf
 ollow. Do not walk beside me, either, just leave me alone.
