Firefox NTLM not working correctly...

hitechgreg

I'm getting ready to mass deploy Firefox but I'm having an issue with the NTLM settings of the about:config settings inside of Firefox.

I've set this in times past with no issues.  I've went in and set our webappliance name inside of the network.automatic-ntlm-auth.trusted-uris string and it still prompts for username and password.  

Should this setting be the FQDN or the http site?

    Hi Guys,

    Yes, by default the browser is directed to the short hostname rather than FQDN for authentication.  Eg:  http://appliance rather than http://appliance.domain.tld

    This helps in circumstances where there are multiple domains and an individual DNS record might be needed in each.  If it causes a problem in your environment, please do call Sophos support, as they can change this to point at the FQDN instead.

    Thanks,
    Tom.
