Hi Jorge,

Difficult to say from what you've said. Please post a wire log showing this problem <http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/httpclient/logging.html>.

Hi,

  Something strange is happening to me. I packetsniff a normal request
  through the browser, and off-course everything goes fine, but when i
  try to do a connection through httpclient to a protected resource I
  donŽt get the 401 HTTP header, even more, I donŽt get any hHTTP
  header at all in the response. Can it be a server problem?
  I donŽt think it has anything to do with the server, but itŽs so
  weird that I can`t understand anything?

Can anybody throw a light on this?

Hi Jorge,

There are a couple of options here.

1) use a null realm in setCredentials(). This will cause the
credentials to match for all realms on the given host.
2) Manually parse the returned 'WWW-Authenticate' header for the realm.

#2 is definitely a hack.  This problem is being worked on for the next
major HttpClient release (probably 3.0).

Hi,
  I have a web-application protected by an ISAPI filter. For loggin
  off users we have implemented a varying realm system, where the
  realm changes from time to time, thus itŽs not always the same.

We want to access some protected resources from Java, but we dontŽt
have a realm to use in the
HttpClient.getState().setCredentials(...)
We want to make a connection to obtain the realm, and then Create
the credentials with these realm, and a UsernamePasswordCredentials,
but donŽt know how to do it.
Is it posible to open a connection, and from the 401 response read
the realm to use it further?


  Thanks from Spain.
Saludos,
