tracker issue : CF-3035879

Problem:

Support for NTLM (Microsoft) and Digest Authentication on all CF HTTP operations.

I would like all CF HTTP requests to be NTLM and Digest security capable. This is a serious issue that is very restrictive in Microsoft environments. The issue is not confined to CFHTTP but also any CF feature making use of the HTTP requests.

A limited list of features impacted by the lack of NTLM / digest support.


    * cfhttp
    * Scheduled Tasks
    * System Probes
    * Cfinvoke for webservices
    * cfexchange
    * cffeed
    * and now cfsharepoint



Can we resolve this? Each release I know I keep asking for it. Sometimes it is not possible to downgrade security on the HTTP resource since it is out of your control, not advisable to do so because of security reasons or when you do a complete pain because you are ’coupling’ the configuration of an external or internal service to the specific requirement.

I would really love this to be fixed so no one can say that CF does not work well in secure or microsoft environments.
