Karl Wright updated HTTPCLIENT-1266:
------------------------------------
Attachment: HTTPCLIENT-1266.patch
Trunk-based patch, for safe keeping. Still in the process of confirming that
it works on real-world Windows systems; will update if needed.
Anyone who tries this patch, and has it fail, and where https is not involved,
should send a packet capture to [email protected] . I will guarantee
confidentiality.

> At the ManifoldCF project, we've recently encountered two SharePoint servers
> (Windows 2008 Server R2) which seem to be configured in a way that the
> connector cannot authenticate with them using httpcomponents NTLM. It's
> worth noting that cURL succeeds, so the NTLM setup is apparently reasonable.
> Furthermore, the mcf patched version of commons-httpclient also fails in
> exactly the same way, so it looks like a long-standing issue.
> Working through the problem, it appears that the NTLM flags httpclient sends
> are, in some cases, inconsistent with the data we include. I am working on a
> httpclient patch, which I hope to be able to exercise in one of the client
> situations within the next week or two.
> Please see CONNECTORS-572 for details and research results.
