NTLM authentication

I have astaro v8 .103 configured with proxy transparent with authentication.
Until last Friday everything was working normally. Authentication was done with the windows (XP) user login (NTLM).
but, at night, the authentication stopped working. I Change DNS (astaro ipaddress with forwarding 8.8.8.8 - google dns) for some hours. Before, DNS was AD. Today, i change to AD again.
Now, i need put username and password every times on browser.
Does anyone have any idea what might be happening?

Server - windows 2008 server
3 groups (master, users, guest)
NTP Server sync on all workstations,AD Server  and Astaro.
Workstations
Windows XP
Browsers: Firefox 3.6 and 4 and IE 8

  • Scott and I do DNS a bit differently, but his way is a great choice, and I don't think that's the issue.

    In your case, transparent with authentication, I don't know if there's a problem with NTLM.  If you were using AD-SSO mode, then there occasionally are problems with NTLM.  To force the use of kerberos, instead of using the numeric IP assigned to 'Internal (Address)' as the address of the Proxy, use an FQDN that resolves internally to that IP.  I know that you can propagate that via GPO to IE8; I think I remember others saying that also worked for Firefox.  Again, that's a presciption for AD-SSO.

    Is there anything in the 'User Authentication' log that gives a clue?

    Cheers - Bob
