Torsten Mielke created CAMEL-8788:
-------------------------------------
Summary: [doc] camel-http doc should mention that NTLM support is
very limited.
Key: CAMEL-8788
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAMEL-8788
Project: Camel
Issue Type: Bug
Components: documentation
Affects Versions: 2.15.2
Reporter: Torsten Mielke
The documentation of the [camel-http|http://camel.apache.org/http.html]
component implies there is full support for NTLM.
However tests against IIS 8 prove this wrong.
Further from http://hc.apache.org/httpclient-3.x/authentication.html#NTLM
"NT Lan Manager (NTLM) authentication is a proprietary, closed
challenge/response authentication protocol for Microsoft Windows. Only some
details about NTLM protocol are available through reverse engineering.
HttpClient provides limited support for what is known as NTLMv1, the early
version of the NTLM protocol. HttpClient does not support NTLMv2 at all. "
These limitations on NTLM should be documented on the camel-http component doc.
