C# WebApp - with HTTP Authentication turned on

Adam Clauss

I have a webapp (actually several) who's folder is setup to use HTTP
Authentication through IIS (not using any .NET Authentication in the
application itself).

Everytime I open up the solution in VS2003, it prompts me for the
username/password - - for each webapp even though it is the same
username/password for both (and on the same server). Is there anyway I can
include this login information in the project files so I do not have to
enter it every time?

Without modifying your existing authentication scheme, the short answer is
no.
