| NTLM authentication for Axis2/C clients using default http transport is made possible with this |
| package. By default NTLM authentication is disabled in Axis2/C build. to enable NTLM authentication |
| user need to configure Axis2/C with an external NTLM library like Heimdal[1] |
| |
| NTLM support is added to Axis2/C client transport as a dynamically loadedable library called axis2c_ntlm. |
| This library will wrap a external NTLM library like Heimdal to provide NTLM support. Axis2/C is shipped with |
| a wrapper to Heimdal which you can find under heimdal subdirectory here. Developers have tested successfully with a |
| wrapper to libntlm[2] as well. |
| |
| One can write a wrapper to any other external NTLM libary of his choice by implementing axis2_ntlm.h header file and |
| studying the heimdal wrapper here. |
| |
| To enable heimdal NTLM library at build time configure Axis2/C with following option |
| configure --enable-heimdal=yes |
| |
| There are some examples of using NTLM authenticaion with Axis2/C clients under |
| <AXIS2C_SOURCE>/samples/client/ntlm subdirecory. |
