Hi Eng (I hope I got your name right) If you produced the wire log of the HTTP session in question, I believe I could try to give you some additional explanations.
What kind of proxy are you using, by the way? I know for a fact that IIS refuses to authenticate using NTLM when proxying through Squid 2.5stable. IIS seems to dislike the fact that Squid complies with HTTP/1.0 proxy requirements only, whereas NTLM scheme relies on persistent connections that are supported as of HTTP/1.1 only. Actually squid does offer support for persistent connections but IIS appears to be programmed to squarely reject HTTP/1.0 requests against NTLM protected resources.

I managed to get HttpClient working with our proxy server, with the help of our network people. According to them, it seems that the IIS server needs to be enabled with both the 'Basic' and 'Integrated Windows' authentications on. Previously, the 'Basic' authentication was not enabled. I am not a network guy, so I don't know what's happening. Maybe someone out there has an explanation.

There has been a few issues lately so if you're having trouble it would be worth mentioning the specific problems you're having and we should be able to help out. For general info take a look at the authentication guide on the website (http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/httpclient/) I believe the specific page is http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/httpclient/authentication.html Regards, Adrian Sutton ---------------------------------------------- Intencha "tomorrow's technology today" Ph: 38478913 0422236329 Suite 8/29 Oatland Crescent Holland Park West 4121 Australia QLD www.intencha.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Confidentiality Caution ======================= Privileged/Confidential Information may be contained in this message.
