> Key: WAGON-270
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/WAGON-270
> Project: Maven Wagon
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: wagon-http
> Affects Versions: 1.0-beta-5
> Reporter: John Casey
> Assignee: John Casey
> Priority: Blocker
>
> the http wagon uses preemptive authentication, which means that if you have a server entry with username and password in it that don't correspond to a user on the server you're trying to reach, that server will sometimes respond with Unauthorized regardless of whether authentication is even required to perform that operation on that target URL.
> We should allow the configuration strategy from WAGON-269/WAGON-264 to configure the 'http.authentication.preemptive' httpclient parameter, and turn off preemptive authentication by default.
