Understandable although in our case we don't use the scheme to actually talk with Amazon. We've implemented the scheme in both client and server form as our sole means of auth since it is easy, stateless, very secure and doesn't require SSL overhead.

Just food for thouught. I'll create a JIRA ticket.

Cheers,

Jean-Philippe

This certainly makes things easier.

I am not sure a vendor specific auth scheme, which none of the actual
project committers is able to support, should belong to the HttpClient
proper, but we can certainly accept your code into the contrib (source
only) package. If that is okay with you please feel free to go ahead and create a JIRA ticket for your contribution and attach the source code to
it.

Cheers

Hi Oleg,

Thank you for your response. I realized my issue last night with my scheme not implementing challenge. I've been developing an implementation of
Amazon
S3 authentication which requires no challenge. I didn't realize that there was a difference until I started reading more carefully about preemptive auth schemes. By setting up my scheme as preemptive I was able to get it
to
work.

On a side note if the project is interested in having an Amazon S3 auth
implementation I'd be happy to submit it.


Hi Jean-Philippe

Does Amazon S3 auth implementation depend on any third party libraries, and
if so, what license they are covered by?

Oleg
