Authentication should be set to Windows Authentication. For this feature you will need to have at least Windows 7 Professional. For Home versions, you can use Anonymous Authentication. That last option does mean students need to enter their name, instead of having it automatically recorded. If you have a domain, you should have Windows 7 Pro or higher.
