NTLM not working

In both the latest released and CVS versions, NTLM authentication doesn't seem to work. The server used in this case is IIS on Windows XP Professional.

$_SERVER["REMOTE_USER"] obtains the proper value after logging in using NTLM, yet the module doesn't open a session for that user.

I had to replace line 23 in webserver_auth.module with the code below to make it work:

$user = user_load(array("name" => $account->name));
