           Summary: nonce-count in digest auth should not be quoted
           Product: HttpClient
           Version: 3.0 RC3
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows 2000
            Status: NEW
          Keywords: RFC
          Severity: blocker
          Priority: P2
         Component: Commons HttpClient
        AssignedTo: httpclient-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: ole.henrik@wettre.name


In 3.0rc3 nonce-count (nc) is enclosed in quote marks. According to rfc2617 this
is wrong, nonce-count shouldn't be enclosed in quote marks.
