Just installed the software today.

Turned on Windows Authentication,
When anyone goes to the forum, I get the error:

An error has occured while reading Authenticated User's, username from Windows Server....Support Error Code:- err_SQLServer_windowsAuthentication()_get_AUTH_USER

My SqlServer is mixed mode-- is there another setting I need to have on the server?

I should Add:

I had the forums set up and was logged in as Admin.
After turning on Windows Auth, my Admin session gets the same error no matter what i do.
 
My SqlServer is on the same machine as my IIS server

Also, the IIS server has Windows Authentication enabled for the website.
Also, if there is doc on this, my apologies, I haven't found it yet...

I figured it out: you have to turn OFF anonymous access in the IIS control panel for this website :)

Glad you now have the problem sorted out.

At the moment I have not had time to document the setting up of this new feature, but a new site is being developed that will include a knowledge base for Web Wiz Forums that I hope to fill with lots of documentation on topics like this and more in-depth install and modification instructions.
