Roland Young commented on HTTPCLIENT-1582:
------------------------------------------

If the JNA issue referred to is addressed as requested by the comment I have 
just posted in their GitHub project, no action is needed in this project.

Otherwise, there are two possible approaches
 # Use code similar to [this 
patch|https://github.com/Waffle/waffle/commit/ebedaf7e92535e2cdcbd46bf9032ebce360383ed]
 to Waffle
 # Define a hard-coded constant WindowsNegotiateScheme#MAX_TOKEN_SIZE as 49152 
(48k), to correspond to the maximum size of a token that can be passed in an 
HTTP header.

I intend to test at least one of these as a workaround to an issue we are 
facing with our product (which uses HttpClient to make a headless connection to 
our SSO service), so I may be able to contribute a patch.

> SSPI-based auth might fail if output token size is too small

> It might happen that a user has many groups, this makes the output token 
> bigger. It might exceed the limit defined by JNA. Refer to JNA's issue 
> [261|https://github.com/twall/jna/issues/261].
