Login Prompt from the Web Client asks you for a password / can't log in
If the Nodinite Web Client prompts you for a password or prevents login, this guide helps you quickly identify and resolve the most common causes. Ensure seamless access by following these troubleshooting steps:
✅ Ensure Windows Authentication is enabled in IIS
✅ Verify user or AD group is registered in Nodinite
✅ Check firewall and local policy settings for domain communication
✅ Access direct links to Microsoft and Nodinite resources
Nodinite relies on Windows Authentication and uses integrated security. IIS and Windows must be properly configured, and firewall settings must allow communication with domain controllers.
The proper setup for IIS and Windows is described here.
