[jira] [Created] (HTTPCLIENT-1545) Possible infinite loop when WindowsNegotiateScheme authentication fails

---------------------------------------

             Summary: Possible infinite loop when WindowsNegotiateScheme authentication fails
                 Key: HTTPCLIENT-1545
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-1545
             Project: HttpComponents HttpClient
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: HttpClient
    Affects Versions: 4.4 Alpha1
         Environment: Windows
            Reporter: Ka-Lok Fung


When {{WindowsNegotiateScheme}} authentication fails, it's possible for HttpClient to retry the authentication in an endless loop because the {{continueNeeded}} flag is not set to {{false}} when authentication fails.

One possible way of causing authentication to fail is to use a service principle name that is outside your Windows domain (e.g., HTTP/EXAMPLE.COM).
