Michael Osipov commented on HTTPCLIENT-1545:
--------------------------------------------
For what it is worth. I have changed the thrown error to
{{SEC_E_TARGET_UNKNOWN}} to make that test pass in Windows XP. See
[r1639679|http://svn.apache.org/r1639679].

> 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).
