Pass Through Authentication in v10.1.3

Question

I've run into a snag when trying to configure pass through authentication for Orion v10.1.3.  When my environment was originally deployed, we had installed v9.5 which required the Windows pass through to make AD authentication work.  When I attempted to follow the admin guide to make the conversion, I'm getting myself locked out of Orion.  I have a local Admin account and several domain/user accounts set up in the system, but I'm not sure how to clear the passwords for some of those accounts.

In IIS Manager, I'm going to the Solarwinds NetPerfMon Site -> Actions/Properties -> Directory Security -> Edit Authentication and access control -> uncheck Integrated Windows authentication.  After that, I'm restarting IIS services at the server level.  After that, I'm getting that I am not authorized to view the NPM page for my Orion account.  Since it's using the logged in AD credentials (I'm assuming), I'm not getting the opportunity to login with local Orion credentials (if pass through is working the way it should, this is correct).

So, What are the steps I should follow to get my Orion installation to work properly with pass through authentication?  Is there a way to clear my account password from the portal?  I don't appear to be able to change my password with my AD account when I'm logged in currently.

Hopefully I've got my issue right!  Thanks in advance for any help!

That's partially fixed it.  If I'm logged into the server, the site will log me into the site using my credentials, but not from my desk PC.  My desk PC is still asking for login credentials to access the site.

You will need to rebuild the Website to reset the Website to defaults to authenticate properly.

* Please go into Control      Panel> Administrative Tools> IIS Manager. Expand Local Computer>      Web Sites, then Right Click on Solarwinds NetPerfMon and select Delete.* Server 2003: In       the IIS Manager, Right Click on the Local Computer, and select All       Tasks> Restart IIS. In the Popup select Restart Internet Services on       (Server Name). 
* Server 2008: In the IIS       Manager, Right Click on the Local Computer, and select Stop, then Right       Click again and select Start.

* Go into C:\Inetpub and Rename      Solarwinds Folder to SolarwindsOld. 
* Go into Start>      Programs> Solarwinds Orion> Configuration and Auto-Discovery>      Configuration Wizard.
