Hello guys,
I am an android developer.
I am developing apps with server side (admin side) in Microsoft technology and communicate via KSOAP library to android and Server side web service.

These all working fine in all my apps. I just stuck in the issue when my web service need to authenticate using Microsoft server active directory (NTLM).

Is there any way to provide the NTLM credential in KSOAP request.

I really need help for this.
Thanks.

I updated the question to change NTML to NTLM.

I believe this blog post will help you out:

This came from this question on Stack Overflow:

I did look for an example directly from KSOAP, and this is what I found:

Hey Tim , Thanks for quick response.
I already tried first and second link you had given but in that method they are using HttpClient and generate the SOAP xml in String or String Builder.

I need to do this in KSOAP library.

Thanks and Regards

Well, as the last link states, even the person who maintains KSOAP isn't sure if that is possible. Sorry, but that is all I've got.

Yah, i just checked that. Now only option to use the jcifs for authentication in HttpClient.

Thanks Tim.
