I think that the main problem is to handle automatically all steps of the authentications. As said, I must first examine and understand how the component works. Is there already a similar situation, i.e. the component exchange automatically more that one request with the client? >I don't want to peek into Windows user base, just implement the NTLM >authentication protocol. A simple event to get the usercode/password from >the application host the server component is enough. This should be true for authentication in general, not only for NTLM. I checked (very quickly) the code but I don't understood how it handle the basic authentication. Speaking about the NTLM, I don't know if it will be "correct" to don't use the Windows domain user base. Probably it is the only reason to use the NTLM instead other authentications.
