2. In the work pane, select ecp (Default Web site), and then, in the action pane, under ecp (Default Web site), click Properties. The ecp (Default Web site) Properties page will open.

3. On the General tab, in the Internal URL box, verify that the internal URL is correct for your organization.

     Integrated Windows authentication

     Digest authentication for Windows domain servers
