-----------------------------------------
Summary: NTCredentials for Basic Authentication uses slash instead
of backslash
Key: HTTPCLIENT-1377
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-1377
Project: HttpComponents HttpClient
Issue Type: Bug
Components: HttpClient
Affects Versions: 4.2.5
Reporter: Jason Millard
Basic authentication fails when using NTCredentials because a slash is used
instead of a backslash for the DOMAIN USERNAME separator.
httpClient.getCredentialsProvider().setCredentials(
new AuthScope(AuthScope.ANY_HOST, AuthScope.ANY_PORT),
new NTCredentials("USERNAME", "PASSWORD", "", "DOMAIN"));
produces USERNAME/PASSWORD
Tested to work using:
httpClient.getCredentialsProvider().setCredentials(
new AuthScope(AuthScope.ANY_HOST, AuthScope.ANY_PORT),
new UsernamePasswordCredentials("DOMAIN\\USERNAME", "PASSWORD"));

Down-Level Logon Name
The down-level logon name format is used to specify a domain and a user
account in that domain, for example, DOMAIN\UserName. The following table
summarizes the parts of a down-level logon name.
