Claus Ibsen commented on CAMEL-8788:
------------------------------------
+1 go ahead Torsten we love contributions
> [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
> Labels: documentation, http, httpclient
>
> 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.
