I tested with Firefox and IE 8 and it looks like that when squid returns a
list like Negotiate Digest Firefox will try Negotiate with NTLM and when
this fails tries Digest and stays with Digest when successful. IE 8 just
tries Negotiate with NTLM. So IE 8 will never be able to authenticate non
domain machines or is there a way to verify a NTLM password from a
standalone machine ?
Does anybody know how MS intends to deal with this (e.g. guests in a company
network) in a MS only environment with ISA proxy ?
Thank you
