Users are prompted for authentication multiple times when trying to edit
docs in a document library. The only way I've been able to get around this
is to create local accounts on the sharepoint server for the users.

Here's what I'd like to do & have attempted.
Have a sharepoint server as a member server in a 2003 AD domain. When
adding sharepoint site users, I would like to add them from the domain
(domain\username). This seems to work fine as long as the client machine is
joined to the domain. My problem is that most of clients machines accessing
the sharepoint site will not be domain members, but I will have domain user
accounts for them.
I have tried using windows integrated, digest authentication, etc. I have
also turned on reversible encrytion on the user acct properties.
Still can't come up with a workable solution, short of local sharepoint user
accounts.

any thoughts welcome.
