I ran into this issue several times in the past in setting up SharePoint environments (for both internal development use and customers) so I figured it was time to write a blog post about it.  If you are running SharePoint Server 2007 or WSS 3.0 on  Windows Server 2003 SP1 or later you will run into authentication issues if you are trying to access a SharePoint site using host headers from the server itself (i.e. host file has portal.mydomain.com pointed to 127.0.0.1).  This issue manifests itself as the result of a loop back security check that Microsoft built in to Windows...
