Oleg Kalnichevski commented on HTTPCLIENT-1018:
-----------------------------------------------
HttpClient has built-in support for SPNEGO since version 4.1-alpha1. Am I
missing something?

> Support Spnego Authentication using Kerberos
> --------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HTTPCLIENT-1018
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-1018
> Project: HttpComponents HttpClient
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: HttpAuth
> Reporter: Christian Schneider
>
> Many bigger companies use Kerberos Authentication. When used on Webservers
> this usually means that the server uses the Spnego Protocoll to negotiate
> with the client which authentication to use.
> So Httpclient should support the Spnego protocoll together with Kerberos
> authentication to authenticate against this class of webservers.
> The spring security project with it´s kerberos extension already supports the
> spnego and kerberos protocol on the server side. The source code shows how
> the authentication is done on the server side and will surely help to
> implement the client part.
