Roland, I have IIS connecting to tomcat containing httpclienttest.war via iis_redirector, and run httpclienttest against iis.
As you have said, IIS does intercept the header. I can either add the user/password hardcoded in the httpclienttest to IIS and run the test again, or I can figure out how to make IIS not to intercept the basic authentication. The later one is the perfer way. but still no clue yet.

Hello Dan,
IIS will try to verify the authentication headers it gets. If your users and passwords are known to Windows, the requests should pass through just fine.
What exactly is an "httpclient servlet"?
Have you checked which plugins are active in IIS? Maybe you can move the plugin of your servlet engine in front of the IIS authentication, so the servlet gets the request before IIS authenticates it.
I'm just guessing here, I only conducted a few authentication experiments with IIS last year.
cheers, Roland

Hello, I think IIS rejects any Basic Authentication request. Is there a way to configure IIS to allow these request to passthru to httpclient servlets?
Any suggestions?
