Ka-Lok Fung commented on HTTPCLIENT-1545:
-----------------------------------------

The likely reason why it isn't failing is because {{InitializeSecurityContext}} 
in {{getToken}} isn't causing a {{Win32Exception}} to be thrown.

By any chance is your Windows machine not joined to a domain, i.e., it's a 
member of WORKGROUP? Also, what version of Windows are you using?

I'll try to replicate the issue on a virtual machine that matches the 
conditions you specified. In the end, I might be forced to add a JUnit 
assumption that the test can only run on Windows machines that is a member of a 
domain.

> When {{WindowsNegotiateScheme}} authentication fails, it's possible for 
> HttpClient to retry the authentication in an endless loop because the 
> {{continueNeeded}} flag is not set to {{false}} when authentication fails.
> One possible way of causing authentication to fail is to use a service 
> principle name that is outside your Windows domain (e.g., HTTP/EXAMPLE.COM).
