>From the logs, Nutch did attempt an NTLM authentication but the server returned HTTP 500. It says nothing about whether the NTLM authentication succeeded or failed. It only indicates that the authentication failed. It suggests that an internal error happened in SharePoint. Now, this can happen due to a variety of reasons. I don't know much about how to troubleshoot this in the SharePoint side. Perhaps you should be looking into IIS logs, event viewer, etc. to figure why SharePoint didn't accept your credentials. Most likely it is some kind of configuration problem in either SharePoint or IIS due to which the the NTLM authentication is causing some trouble. Even though it is outside the scope of Nutch, from my very limited experience working with SharePoint, I can say that it might be a good idea to get the Microsoft technical support involved while trying to troubleshoot this.
