Hi, So when is 4.0 expected and is there a chance that NTLM v2 is also implemented. As the authentication guide states: #
Cannot authenticate with Microsoft IIS using NTLM authentication scheme NT Lan Manager (NTLM) authentication is a proprietary, closed challenge/response authentication protocol for Microsoft Windows. Only some details about NTLM protocol are available through reverse engineering. HttpClient provides limited support for what is known as NTLMv1, the early version of the NTLM protocol. HttpClient does not support NTLMv2 at all. Workaround: Disable NTLMv2. For details refer to this Microsoft Support Article I would like to use NTLM v 2.0 would be great if this can be added as well.

It's on my list for 4.0, though it won't make it into client alpha1: http://wiki.apache.org/jakarta-httpclient/ConnectionManagementDesign It's not urgent since we won't have NTLM support for a while. I don't think we can or should squeeze this into 3.x anymore. cheers, Roland --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
