protocol-httpclient NTLM authentication fails
Hi Nutch user group,
I installed Nutch from the trunk. I wanted NTLM authentication. I
included protocol-httpclient in nutch-site.xml. Next I added the
properties for username, password, domain, host. But it is not able to
authenticate. I get this error... <any realm>@vista:80
I also tried Basic authentication as protocol-httpclient has some
basic authentication code. That also fails. Could you please advise
what I may be missing? If you need logs I'll send.

Hi,
I can see a bug in the NTLM authentication in 'protocol-httpclient'
plugin in this line.
client.getState().setCredentials(new AuthScope(ntlmHost,
AuthScope.ANY_PORT), ntCreds);
'ntlmHost' or the client requesting for an authorized page is passed
as the first argument of AuthScope whereas it should be the server or
AuthScope.ANY_HOST (AuthScope.ANY_HOST is not recommended because this
use would be removed in future versions of HttpClient). So this may be
the cause of your error. Fixing this might solve the problem for Basic
authentication too. However, I am not sure as I haven't tried.
I have written my own plugin, 'protocol-http11'. It works well for me.
This has support for HTTP 1.1, HTTP 1.0, HTTPS, NTLM, Basic and Digest
authentication, proxy server and proxy server authentication (NTLM,
Basic and Digest). I am providing a patch against revision 575912 of
trunk. Please let me know if this solves your problem.

Susam Pal
