Hi Wyllys

We have a customer using apache 2.x with mod_auth_kerb as the web server, and 
Java 6 as the client. In Java's HTTP implementation, when we see a 
"WWW-Authenticate: Negotiate" header from the server, we would create a SPNEGO 
NegTokenInit and send it back in a WWW-Authorization header.

Now, it looks like that the customer's web server does not accept SPNEGO 
NegTokenInit, but only Kerberos AP-REQ. Is this true for the mod_auth_kerb 
module?

I want to know if there's a way to configure the module to accept the SPNEGO 
token. Or, if it really only accepts Kerberos tokens, can it send 
"WWW-Authenticate: Kerberos" instead of "WWW-Authenticate: Negotiate"?

The customer is using RedHat Linux, but I guess it should not make much 
difference.

Thanks
Max
