Oleg Kalnichevski commented on HTTPCLIENT-919:
----------------------------------------------

I would like to have the NTLM code incorporated before 4.1 goes BETA in order 
to have more time for testing. I'll take a stab at porting the patch but I 
would really appreciate if you could invest some effort into testing NTLM 
authentication in HttpClient 4.1 once ready. Some test coverage would also be 
nice ;-)

> The current HttpClient implementation lacks support for all enhancements to 
> NTLM after Windows 95.  That includes NTLMv1, NTLMv2, and NTLM2 Session 
> Response varieties of the protocol.
> This seriously impacts the usability of HttpClient in enterprise situations, 
> which has required the Lucene Connector Framework team to extend HttpClient 
> to address the issue.
> I've attached a patch which contains the implementation used by LCF.
