I have set up a Silverlight application that uses Windows Authentication, and works fine on My Windows Server 2003 Dev Box, but on Deployment to our Test Environment a windows authentication window opens and asks for the users credentials (which never get resolved).

I have just realized one big difference is that I am not using host headers (I just have one site in iis)

What could be causing this difference in behaviors? I don't think it is the Web Config, but below is a copy of it:

Web.Config

A: 

AHA! It was really random, but if I have my project open in VS then it works, but if I close my project, then it doesn't.

In my client config I was pointing to localhost, and then when I ran my site it was resolving to the Casini version of my service, rather than the hosted version.

Then when I deployed my site onto another box I changed localhost to an appropriate hostname... doh, back to square one again
