NTLM Authentication against Sharepoint

[ecclesr]

Hello,

I have a challenge I am trying to run a DataStage webservice test job to extract data from Sharepoint - And I have come up against the problem of NTLM authentication.

I am able to run a test webservice job against sharepoint when no authentication is required - but where it is required my job fails with authentication 401. We have traced it day to DataStage issue with NTLM authentication

Have you come across this before, if so what would be your recommended solution

Thanking you all in advance

Have any developers tried DataStage against a Kerberos Authentication web service - if so what were their findading and recommendations


Does anyone have comments to make in relation to DataStage and Authentication

Thanking you all in advance

There may not be much specific experience in that regard here, why not take this issue to your official support provider?

Hi,
I wonder if you have been able to progress with this...

I'm currently facing the same issue with some WebServices that require NTLM authentication and it seems (IBM support confirmed it) that with WebService Pack in DS8.7, the security level of authentication is not NTLM.

regards,
Rob

The best way I can think of at the moment would be to use JavaPack....first seeing if you are able to write an entirely stand-alone java class that can authenticate in the desired fashion and successfully call your web service...then integrate that class with the JavaPack API.
