FireFox requires Admin Login on the Services page, even when I go to Localhost, IE does not.

Product: IMail
Version: 2006.2x
 

Problem: In FireFox, with the web admin, if I browse to the services page, I am still required to enter username and password of an administrative user. I don’t want to have to do this and in IE I don’t have to.

Solution: You will need to configure Firefox to do pass through Windows authentication. Here are the steps:

 

1. Open Firefox

 

2. Navigate to the following URL: about:config

 

3. Locate the following preference names, and make sure localhost is the value for each.

 

network.automatic-ntlm-auth.trusted-uris

 

network.negotiate-auth.delegation-uris

 

network.negotiate-auth.trusted-uris

 

Your value should say: localhost

If it does not, right click the 'Preference Name' and chose 'Modify'. Add localhost. Once all are changed, close FireFox and re-open.
