Authentication

[kostajh]

Thanks for this nice library. I'd like to use it for a service which requires NTLM authentication. I've looked through the code but I'm not sure I see a way to set the necessary authentication in the config.yml. Could you please provide some documentation for this?

sorry for being ignorant, but what is NTLM authentication?

@goetas good question :) It's a Microsoft authentication protocol.

Here's a related discussion and an older post on the topic.

If I am using Guzzle, I can communicate with the service using NTLM like so:

$response = $client->request('POST', $url, [
  'auth' => [$user, $password, 'ntlm'],
  'body' => $request,
  'headers' => [
      'Method' => 'POST',
      'Connection' => 'Keep-Alive',
      'User-Agent' => 'PHP-SOAP-CURL',
      'Content-Type' => 'text/xml; charset=utf-8',
      'SOAPAction' => '"urn:microsoft-urn:microsoft-dynamics-schemas/codeunit/GuestInfo:GetMember"',
  ],
]);
}

Hope this helps.
