> When using the Java SOLRJ HttpSolrClient, any operation that relies upon a POST HTTP operation fails authentication when proxied via Knox.  This is because the SOLRJ API only supports traditional challenge/response basic authentication.  For any update style operation the SOLRJ client refuses to retry the operation as it might lead to duplicate data, etc.  If this were a GET operation, it would retry the operation and include the appropriate authentication header.
> Therefore preemptive authentication must be used for updates to succeed.  Unfortunately, the Apache HttpClient construction is hidden from the client in the form of the HttpSolrClient.Builder class.
