I need to set up IIS to allow for password protection. This is easily done
by using Microsoft NT Challenge/Responce authentication and setting the
right NTFS permissions. Problem is non Microsoft Network clients (or those
clients that dont have it installed) will not be able to authenticate.

Other option I looked into was using Basic authentication. Everyone can
use it, but I an not too happy with user names and password being
exchanged in clear text.

Are there ways of working around this or should I look into other
solutions?
