Get rid of IIS login dialog

I have two machines,
both have win2003, IIS6.0 and Ie7,
both are in workgroup and have same user name and password on local account
both firewall are turned off.

I setup to use Integrated Windows Authentication on IIS to support intranet user.
However, when i enter the url in IE, it ask for the password (user name already display on the dialog)

I'm 100% sure the password for that user on both machine are the same

What else should i setup to get rid of the login dialog?

i don't have domain here to test
that's why i use workgroup with same user name and password
Then i guess you will always get this username and password dialog.

that's what i don't understand.
That uses to work in workgroup environment.
Does it change on win2003 environment but i cannot find any doc to describe this

As far as i know, the domain is stored all user in one place.
In workgroup, you need to define all same user and password on each local account to make it work similiar to domain situation
Just wait to see if some other experts have any comments on this.

not anonymous as well
if i check anonymous, everything works but i want integrated windows authentication
Okay so what you do is enter the dns entry in your web site properties with your IP address. This should resolve the issue. Go to IIS, properties of your website and click advance button in directory and enter the IP address entry.

no change, dialog shows
Open IIS-> Right click Web Site Properties - > Web Site Tab - > Click Advance button - > Cick Add button -> enter 80 in TCP Port and IP in Host header -> Apply.

I still cannot make it work on workgroup.
I try several methods.
The ideas here is i have to use workgroup to make it work  because i don't have domain to test.
