    To answer your question, and going on your comment.

    Your users are going to Default.aspx because in your IIS settings, Default.aspx will be set as the default document. You want to specify Index.aspx instead.

    The authenitcation settings only take effect when you are disallowing access to certain areas of your website using Location Authorisation
