Can I provide a link that triggers windows authentication?

Is it possible to have a link that attempts windows integrated security authentication on one of my pages in an project where the web.config is set to Forms?

I think you could do it in a round about way - it wouldn't trigger the browser's internal Windows Authentication dialog, but you could still validate against a domain using LDAP - this question/answer might help.

The security mechanism would be dependent on the page/application that the link is pointing to, not on the link itself. Are you linking to a resource within the same project?
