Re: Question: authentication fallbck from kerb to ntlm
Date: Tue, 30 Sep 2014 21:36:03 +0300
Hi Steve,
thanks for the answer.
I've taken 7.38 and compiled,
curl 7.38.0 (i386-pc-win32) libcurl/7.38.0 OpenSSL/1.0.0k zlib/1.2.7.3
WinIDN libssh2/1.4.3
Protocols: dict file ftp ftps gopher http https imap imaps ldap pop3 pop3s
rtsp scp sftp smtp smtps telnet tftp
Features: AsynchDNS IDN Largefile SSPI SPNEGO NTLM SSL libz
I've used the "CURLAUTH_NEGOTIATE" value instead of CURLAUTH_GSSNEGOTIATE
|CURLAUTH_NTLM
but still no go....
I guess i agree that if any, it's an issue with SPENGO, but if you have any
other suggestions?
Thanks,
Ren
