Hello Dan, IIS will try to verify the authentication headers it gets. If your users and passwords are known to Windows, the requests should pass through just fine.
What exactly is an "httpclient servlet"? Have you checked which plugins are active in IIS? Maybe you can move the plugin of your servlet engine in front of the IIS authentication, so the servlet gets the request before IIS authenticates it. I'm just guessing here, I only conducted a few authentication experiments with IIS last year. cheers, Roland "Dan Tran" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 17.03.2004 17:28 Please respond to "Commons HttpClient Project" To: "Commons HttpClient Project" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> cc: Subject: TestWebappBasicAuth fails on IIS Hello, I think IIS rejects any Basic Authentication request. Is there a way to configure IIS to allow these request to passthru to httpclient servlets? Any suggestions? -Dan --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
