Hi Steven, The information you quote is for Windows NT 4.0 and Windows 2000, as far as can be determined, HttpClient is fully compatible with these OS's, the only problem (and it is theoretical as we haven't received any actual reports of it not working) is with Windows 2003 Server in a specific configuration. As I understand it, the configuration isn't so much a new version of NTLM as adding a cryptographic key to the messages such that only Windows can be compatible with it. It is essentially an attempt by Microsoft to break SAMBA (the linux-based project). >From what you've sent through I would say that HttpClient does support NTLMv2 however I have to stress that there are no published specs for NTLM (any version) and as such the only real way to know if it works for you is to test it. > Stefan Dingfelder 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]
