Ralf,

Let's face it, if you do not contribute such documentation, no one else will.

> http://hc.apache.org/httpclient-3.x/authentication.html describes many 
> aspects of authentication.
> We use httpClient to write a proxy and it simply writes back to the 
> javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse whatever the httpClient GetMethod sees.
> Works fine for a static web-site.
> However, when the proxy (httpClient GetMethod) hits a page of the remote 
> server that requires http basic auth, the response GetMethod copied to the 
> javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse will not trigger a http basic auth 
> request in my firefox that the proxy could pass through.
