NTLM auth for every connection

[kata32]

I implemented NTLM authentication via OkHttpClient.authenticator and the jcifs library.
I managed to keep the same session cookie through a custom CookieManager,
everything works except the fact that authentication is requested and performed for every connection made even if the session cookie remains the same.
I expected NTLM authentication to be requested only during the first connection and then the subsequent connections were already authenticated, a bit like the browser do.
I can not really understand why.

Do you have a code sample we can test with?

If anyone is interested, I think it’s probably worth the trouble for someone to build an NTLM + OkHttp integration library. I don’t know anything about NTLM but can read source code if presented with a standalone sample.

No clear action to take here.

FWIW - I'll try to get this working at some point, but closing for now is appropriate. It probably lives in an external library anyway.
