No login prompt for website

Suppose you want to login with Internet Explorer to an intranet website, that uses Windows Authentication as the authentication mechanism. When you do this, a prompt is displayed, that requires you to enter the account's username and password.

This prompt can be skipped:

• Note the webserver name in the title bar of the prompt, e.g. wbsvr01.acme.lan
• Start the Credential Manager: Control Panel -> Credential Manager
• Add a windows credential:
  a. internet or network address: wbsvr01.acme.lan
  b. username: domain\usr
  c. password: pwd

Note: if the website is on the internet, the webserver name has to be added to the trusted sites of the intranet zone:

• Internet Explorer -> Tools -> Internet Options -> Security -> Select "Local Intranet" -> Sites -> Advanced
• Add this website to the zone: http://wbsvr01.acme.lan
