Dear listers,
Hi,
Would any of you have implemented the NTLM authentication scheme
in their IBM HTTP Server by Apache on z/OS? This would require
the mod_ntlm2, but the Sourceforge files date from 2003, does not
seem to support NTLM v2, which is a requirement. Besides, I need
to authenticate users against RACF, not against a Windows domain
controller... So before I set out on a wild (old...) goose chase,
I thought I better ask first.
Ugh.
You might want to try this on a stock version of Apache, probably on a
Linux (virtual) machine somewhere.
From memory IBM HTTP Server /should/ be a one-for-one replacement for a
comparable version of Apache HTTP Server. But I wouldn't bet on it.
Get the procedure down in a more common environment and then try to
apply it to IHS.
You might also inquire in more typical Apache HTTP Server and / or
Oracle HTTP Server (also a recompile of Apache) forums.
And if you wonder why... Well... Some powers that be have decided
not to allow basic authentication anymore, even over HTTPS. So I am
looking for an alternative.
The motivation might be annoying.
But the request doesn't seem that atypical to me.
Thanks and very best regards,
Good luck.
