Hi… im using Domino 7.01 and Domino 8.02 and everything works fine except DWA specifically with IE6 and IE7. Firefox works great. When i open my mail server from my browser on both browsers i get the DWA login form, after i enter the username and password, firefox redirects to the webmail properly but IE does not so anything. The form remains the same. If i put a wrong username and password it shows incorrect username and password. So i know it is authenticating with names.nsf My session authentication is set to single server btw.
Now if i remove session authentication, then a box pop’s up for user authentication when i access the website. Here the credentials are accepted and it goes straight to the mailbox.
What could be my problem? Why won’t IE redirect for either Domino 7.01 or Domino 8.02 with session authentication?
I think that there is some setting in your browser that does not allow enough for the redirecting (although I do not know which setting). Maybe adding the site to your Trusted Sites might be a solution.
Is it possible that you have turned off META-REFRESH ? There’s an option on the security settings tab of IE6 and 7 (Under Miscellaneous, about in the middle of the entire list). The DWA redirector uses a META tag to redirect to the user’s mail file, not a 301 HTTP response
What exactly happens when your users enter their credentials in IE? TN#1096315 (http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=899&uid=swg21096315) describes an issue with session authentication and underscores in the URL. Can users access their mail files directly, bypassing the redirect?
