Authorization failed means you successfully authenticated (i.e., the
username/password is recognized and found ok), but you don't have the
authority to access the resource (the user doesn't have the required
privileges).

Depending on your configs, you might need to prepend DOMAINNAME\ to the
usernames which you give specific access. For example:
DOMAINNAME\myusername
instead of just
myusername

Or you have to configure mod_auth_sspi to omit the domain names.
