Hi gurus,
I am trying to access web page protected by NTLM authentification
mechanism by httpclient. If I construct object
org.apache.commons.httpclient.NTCredentials (with my user name and
password) everything works fine.
But if I access this page from Microsoft Internet Explorer it does not
prompt me for my user name and password - so I think that this
information has to be stored somewhere in the system. It is possible
to get these NT credentials directly from the system and pass them to
httpclient to be used for authentification? Many thanks for reply.

Regards,
Pavel
