NTLMv2 authentication with SOAP adapter (HTTP Axis)

[Former Member]

Hello,

I was already asking here

;

but have decided to create a separate topic.

we really need NTLMv2 support for our scenario.

NTLMv2 is available in HTTPClient 4.1-beta1 (http://hc.apache.org/downloads.cgi)

Is it possible somehow to add this new HTTPClient library as a handler to Axis adapter?

Thanks in advance!

Best Regards,

You can refer to the [AXIS Adapter FAQ - Note # 1039369|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1039369]. The Handler related questions should help.

Note that there is an excerpt that says:

Is Windows NTLMv2 supported?
The answer depends on the status of the http client implementation in the Apache HttpCommons project. At the time of this writing, NTLMv2 is not supported y the Apache Http Commons library because of the licencing restriction. 

The last update seems to be 03.06.2010 which may mean that the beta is still not supported at this time.
