Chris,
You could create an ISAPI filter that would do the trick.  You basically
could have the ISAPI filter check for the existence of some
authentication cookie, etc.  There may already be existing ones out
there as well.

You could also use Site Server's authentication component, or commerce
server should be able to do the trick (both very expensive solutions).

Hope it helps.

They are the client so they control the client side code. Javascript,
VBScript and any other client side solutions will only stop the casual
browser, no more.

There might be a way if you use cookies and
JavaScripts

How do people address the issue of non-authenticated
users requesting html
pages directly from a site without logging in?

FYI. This is an IIS server. Our asp pages check the
user is logged in, but
with html pages we cannot.
My only idea so far is to convert all our html pages
to asp. Is there
anything less drastic?
