Re: PATCH: Curl Sanity patch for spnego authentication

Hi Kevin,

   The spnego implementation with fbopenssl was only added to wrap/unwrap a
gssapi token and make it a spnego token to work with MS servers. This
wrapping/unwrapping is now contained in all the standard Kerberos libraries
(Heimdal/MIT). It was not intended for NTLM.

Regards
Markus

Hi,

I have been trying to get SPNEGO working with fallback to NTLM (rather than
using kerberos). Should this work out of the box? To do this I built curl
with fbopenssl and have had to make a few changes to handle the 3-way
protocol for NTLM and change the default gss mech to NTLM. Should I have
started from a different base? For example using the Heimdal library to
handle everything and ignoring the fbopenssl SPNEGO code? BTW it's not yet
working so this is an experiment-in-progress. I'm also planning on trying
the Heimdal library only today.

Apologies if the format of this message is incorrect I've just subscribed
and had to reply via the digest.

Thanks,

Kevin
