Apache itself do not support NTLM but take a look at this:
http://modntlm.sourceforge.net/
it's supposed to be a module for Apache. I think they have sources also. It
may be helpful.

That's clear, but there is still the problem how to handle request
made from clients that aren't based on ICS, if they set flags and
fields with values that are different from the "fixed" one set by
THttpCli.
In conclusion, it seems to me that implementing the NTLM in the
server will require lot of time, and at the moment I don't have so
much time.
And I don't known if it worth the effort. Maybe it would be better to
invest that time implementing a more standard authentication (client
and server) instead for a proprietary and not dodumented like NTLM.
For example, Apache or other web servers different fom M$ are able to
accept NTLM authentication? (Not a rhetorical question, I really
don't know)
Bye, Maurizio.
