Hi Konstantin,
This sounds interesting. It would be nice to have a look at your code.
Can you put it on a server somewhere?
Here is some strategic information:
We would like to completely factor out NTLM (1 and 2) of HttpClient
code. It is complex and can not be maintained sufficiently enough by the
current community. We have had a look at JCIFS and it looks like we
could use that library. But currently there are still legal issues with
bundling LGPL code with ASF licensed projects. That's why we have not
made efforts so far. These issues are however to be alleviated in the
near future:

Our only option for the moment is to open a SourceForge project to
develop the LGPL code that links the JCIFS library to the HttpClient API.

Hello guys, recently I've encouner the problem how to interact with
HTTP resourses protected tough security policy allowed to use only
NTLMv2 authorization scheme from a java application.
Earlier I used httpclient to accomplish NTLMv1 authorization, but
when I was requested to move to NTLMv2 I was surprised, that
httpclient does not support this.
I've dug all the Internet and found some articles and examples how to
implement it, and finally having compiled all this enormous heap of
information, I have a couple modified classes from httpclient
project, that I'd like to share with you and other users of
httpclient.
Also I have written a HTTPHandler, that I use with Axis to provide
the ability to connect to WebServices through NTLM.
Please give me the details how to share my knowledge. Maybe it is
possible to join me to your team?
