Michael Osipov commented on HTTPCLIENT-1573:
--------------------------------------------
[~PeterBinney], my recommendation, you should rather switch to Kerberos which
is default on Windows and is a standards protocol. Discussion should always go
to the users mailing list.
Although the winclient-auth module is very nice, it has not reached production
quality. I have made a few short tests and I wasn't completely satisfied.
> How do I get NTLM to use current user credentials/token?

> Key: HTTPCLIENT-1573
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-1573
> Project: HttpComponents HttpClient
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: HttpClient
> Affects Versions: 4.4 Beta1
> Environment: Windows
> Reporter: Peter Binney
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: ntlm
>
> I want to extend a website monitoring application to support sites using NTLM
> (aka: Windows Authentication).
> The application is written in Java and uses the HTTPClient/Core 4.2 package,
> running against sites using basic HTTP authentication and client certificates.
> It runs on Windows servers and I would like it to poll NTLM-secured sites
> too, using the credentials of the current Windows user - NOT having to supply
> a name&password to the application.
> I have tried upgrading to both 4.3 and 4.4-beta1 (with
> httpclient-win-4.4-beta1.jar).
> But I cannot find any way to get the HttpClientBuilder/CloseableHttpClient to
> use the current user's windows persona.
> Is there a way to do this, or will I have to revert to plan B which is to
> convert the app to .NET (which I would hate to do!).
