Thanks for the response dims. Commons http does support NTLM authentication but unfortunately only levels 0-3 - it doesn't support NTLMv2 at all. Ref: http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/httpclient/authentication.html#Known_l imitations_and_problems
The JRE 6.0 http transport is reported to support all levels of NTLM authentication which is preferable, but may not be worthwhile if Axis 1.4 doesn't support its use. So, do you know if there is a way to configure Axis to use the JRE transport? Thanks, Colum. -----Original Message----- From: Davanum Srinivas [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, April 11, 2007 10:36 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: JRE 6.0 http transport support in Axis?
