Problem with WindowsAuthentication set "on" on IIS application

[mbrit]

We've found a problem whereby if we have an IIS application where WindowsAuthentication is enabled, any redirected URLs do not work.

e.g. if we have a rule whereby /Customers --> /ViewCustomers.aspx, if the user browses to /Customers it keeps prompting for credentials. (If the user browses to /ViewCustomers.aspx it is fine.)

What we've found is that if we change line 142 in RewriterModule such that the call to TransferRequest is just this:

context.Server.TransferRequest(rewrittenUrlPath);

...it works fine. Also if we use the override where JUST preserveForm is set True, it works OK. It seems to be something to do with the method or header arguments being passed, although we're not sure what.

At the moment we're using a modified version of the library with our "fix" in it, but would prefer to keep using your supported version. :-)

I am open to a pull request for this. I will push to NuGet after I receive one.
