Hi,
We in our product support Kerberos auth scheme and while using 3.x version of 
HttpClient we did that by registering Kerberos scheme with the AuthPolicy class.
In 4.x Api I see no way to register the schemes we might want to implement and 
support. It looks like other than Basic,Digest and NTLM we cannot support any 
other auth scheme.

Is that right?


Pankaj,

SPNEGO scheme is also unsupported in HttpClient 3.x. There exists an unofficial implementation contributed by a third party developer who is no longer there to support it [1]. This is the reason why it was not included in HttpClient 4.0. There is simply no one around both capable and willing to support SPNEGO.

Feel free to port it to the 4.0 API, if you have a need for it.
