Hi Oleg, Sebastian, > (1) Ship HttpClient 4.0 without NTLM support at all
That'd be my preference. We don't want to support the NTLM code we have, so we've got to drop it. We can at some time add an extra module http-auth-ntlm based on jCIFS, hosted either at Apache or elsewhere depending on whether we can make use of the "system dependency" loophole. > Sun Java on Windows supports NTLM since 1.4. Unfortunately, that functionality is inseparably tied to HttpURLConnection. There is no way at all we could make the Sun code work with HttpComponents. Apart from NTLM auth, we are also missing the multipart entity functionality. I was thinking about a wrapper in the contrib code that adapts the 4.0 entity interface to 3.1 implementations. The Slide client would have been a reason to port the multipart entity, but those ideas are not going to materialize anytime soon. cheers, Roland --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
