             Summary: How do I get NTLM to use current users credentials/token?
                 Key: HTTPCLIENT-1573
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-1573
             Project: HttpComponents HttpClient
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: HttpClient
    Affects Versions: 4.4 Beta1
         Environment: Windows
            Reporter: Peter Binney
            Priority: Minor


I want to extend a website monitoring application to support sites using NTLM 
(aka: Windows Authentication).
The application is written in Java and uses the HTTPClient/Core 4.2 package, 
running against sites using basic HTTP authentication and client certificates.

It runs on Windows servers and I would like it to poll NTLM-secured sites too, 
using the credentials of the current Windows user - NOT having to supply a 
name&password to the application.

I have tried upgrading to both 4.3 and 4.4-beta1 (with 
httpclient-win-4.4-beta1.jar).
But I cannot find any way to get the HttpClientBuilder/CloseableHttpClient to 
use the current user's windows persona.

Is there a way to do this, or will I have to revert to plan B which is to 
convert the app to .NET (which I would hate to do!).
