Enabling windows authentication in IIS

Question

I am on vista home premium (32 bit) and I need to enable windows authentication for IIS because the Sitefinity sample site returns a 401. However, in add windows features, there is no sign of windows authentication despite having expanded all the treeviews.

How can I enable windows auth?

Thanks

Answer 1

This page should answer your question. Also, to install IIS on Vista Home Premium look here

But in short:

Open IIS Manager and navigate to the level you want to manage. In Features View, double-click Authentication. On the Authentication page, select Windows Authentication. In the Actions pane, click Enable to use Windows authentication.

Answer 2

Windows authentication is a feature that's only available in upper editions such as Business/Ultimate as Tchami pointed out.
