Christian Kibsgaard Lunde commented on WAGON-405:
-------------------------------------------------
I also just wasted a whole day trying to figure out why the example i the
documentation for preemptive authentication doesn't work, The documentation
really needs to get updated!
> Preemptive authentication still not working with Maven 3.0.4+
> -------------------------------------------------------------

> Although by default the preemptive authentication should work now with Maven
> 3.0.4, a wireshare dump exposes, that each request for downloading a new
> dependency does not initially come with the authentication header. Only after
> Nexus replied with a 401 the right credentials are set in the authentication
> header. According to [1], since Maven 3.0.4 the default HTTP wagon uses
> preemptive authentication which cannot be disabled [2]. Even with Maven 3.1.1
> it does not work.
