wget and NTLM


Today I tried to use the Windows version of wget on my work to try to download a couple of things on an site running on IIS6. The server requires NTLM-authentication and what I have heard, wget supports that. But I don't know how to enable that. I haven't seen a single example on Internet about that. I have tried with a lot of flags but I still gets 401 errors.

Have any idea what the problem can be?

I hate NTLM...

Your on a windows machine so you don't have the man page. Here it is if it helps you.

Probably want to look at Kerberos
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NTLM

Microsoft implemented Kerberos as the preferred authentication protocol for Windows 2000 and Windows 2003 Active Directory domains. Kerberos is typically used when the client is "joined" to the Windows domain, or if a trust relationship with the domain is established in some other way (such as Linux to Windows AD authentication).

NTLM is still used in the following situations:

* The client is authenticating to a server using an IP address.
* The client is authenticating to a server that belongs to a different Active Directory forest, or doesn't belong to a domain.
* No Active Directory domain exists (commonly referred to as "workgroup" or "peer-to-peer").
* Where a firewall would otherwise restrict the ports required by Kerberos (of which there are quite a few)
