If you enable Windows Authentication, set deny users="?" in your web.config, and configure the ASP.NET Active Directory Membership Provider, it works.

Here is how to configure it: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms998372

If you need to use Forms Authentication, here is how to configure that: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff650308.aspx

As far as I understand it, you dont!

You (and your computer) must be members of the active directory domain. The browser sends your network credential to the webserver to authenticate. (and i'm not sure if it will send these details over the internet, or if it will only send them in a LAN)
