[jira] Commented: (IVY-1094) Problem with NTLM proxy authentication

["Mathieu Anquetin (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IVY-1094?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12719456#action_12719456 ] 

Mathieu Anquetin commented on IVY-1094:
---------------------------------------

Works for me!

But I am still wondering if this solution works for users who use basic authentication for their proxy. Maybe using the UsernamePasswordCredentials when no realm has been set will still be needed.

I am not closing this issue until some feedback on basic authentication is provided.

Thanks for accepting my contribution to your great project!

> I had problems to resolve and retrieve artifacts from an IBiblio Resolver. I was behind a corporate proxy and even if this proxy was correctly configured in Ivy, I was permanently denied access.
> After looking at the HttpClientHandler source code, I found that this was due to a lack of support for NTLM authentication. So I added this behavior in the submitted patch trying not to break the original behavior.
> Now, Ivy supports NTLM authentication if  -Dhttp.proxyRealm=<your_domain> is set in ANT_OPTS. I could not test Basic Authentication but it seems to work also. Maybe someone can confirm ?
> Moreover, in order to avoid breaking an old bug, I put NTLM AuthPolicy after the Basic one in the list authPrefs to make it of less priority during the scheme selection.
