And even better I would suggest to install git version control tool and then you can clone the source with git. Just try again download from github – it should be working.

Is there any way of knowing what NTLM version (v1 or v2) IE is using? Also, in an earlier post you suggested to force vista to use v1 if it is using v2. How do we do that? Thanks for your time. Aravind. Riamonds,

Enter about:config in Firefox location field and then find preference network.automatic-ntlm-auth.trusted-uris and enter comma separated URLs for which you want automatic NTLM authentication enabled. If client operating system is Linux or Mac then Firefox will show log in dialog where you can enter your Windows domain user and password to log in.

If you need NTLM on Windows then I think that probably IIS is the best option as it has NTLM integrated into it. As I do not have need for Apache on Windows I am not going to try this mission impossible of building it on Windows :)

Look into forcing vista to use NTLM instead of NTLM 2.0 and you should be fine. I've recently set up mod_auth_ntlm_winbind on a new box at work so we can start using rails with single sign on. I had the same problem in vista, once i changed it to NTLM it went away. HTH Michael,

One question for you in the process of setting-up mod_ntlm in your environment. Have you run across the following error from Apache 2.2? 3229 - SMB_Logon_Server: SMB_SessSetupAndX failed; errorclass = 1, Error Code = 5\n I'm seeing users intermittently get this, where they are re-prompted for authentication (which doesn't work). It seems very haphazard and I haven't yet found a rhyme-or-reason to it. Excellent work Raimonds. One question for you in the process of setting-up mod_ntlm in your environment.
