Hello Oblivion

I wanted to load the contents of a https web page in an intranet with windows authentication.
Is there a similar sample to do it? How would you do it?


Best regards
Iñaki

In general?

I had to (several times in the past).

1) If you are trying to access from a web site via intranet (and Windows Authentication, using SSO or credential prompt) browsers (FF, Chromium an IE) already support this.
IIRC there was even a FF extention that can simplify the browser configuration.

2) If you want to load the content of a https site programatically, using NTLM/Kerberos (which was what I had to do), don't bother trying anything else, and simply use libcurl https://curl.haxx.se/

It has a very simple interface, good documentation, and plenty of examples. (I'm sorry I can't provide an actual example of my past use cases, as I don't have access to them ATM).

Best regards,
Oblivion

Thank you Oblivion

In fact curl or wget were my second choices.
Thank you for your work.

Hi,

HttpRequest support Basic and Digest authentication.

 HttpRequest q; 
 q.Url("https://...");
 q.User("login", "password");
// q.Digest(); // if the server use Digest authentication
 String s = q.Execute();



regards
omari.

Hi koldo,

i have tested it with a sharepoint server.

Thank you Omari

It works!. Could you include it in Bazaar? Smile

PD.:
- The samples include
	r.Execute();
	LOG(r.GetContent());
However r.Execute() returns r.GetContent(), so this would be unnecesary

- In addition, now I can download it with Curl.


Best regards
Iñaki
