My company is investigating upgrading to SharePoint 2007 from SharePoint 2003. Apparently the 2007 version now uses two web sites, one for the normal stuff and one for the "My Site". The issue is that our users are NOT logged into the domain. They are almost all remote (maybe 20 out 200 are in the office). The site uses domain authentication, thus when they access it, IE prompts them for domain credentials, and they then get on. Unfortunately, when they then choose "My Site", they have to login again, as it is a different site and apparently IE doesn't reuse the already applied authentication (which makes sense).



Does anyone know of a way for two web sites, on the same server, to share the same authentication credentials so the user only has to login once?



Thanks!
