mod_ntlm is NTLM authentication for Apache / Unix.

Installation:

You have to be root to compile and install mod_ntlm.c successfully. You need a ready-to-run apache distribution installed. Go to the source distribution directory of mod_ntlm and enter:

make install && make restart

The Makefile is using apxs to compile and install mod_ntlm. Certain versions of apxs are known to fail unter certain versions of SuSE Linux.

It works fine for me with SuSE Linux 6.3 and Solaris 2.6, no other platforms have been tested y

Limitations:
Basic authentication against SMB server is not supported. There are enough modules that do this and you need https to make it safe.
Internet Explorer 3.0 (broken keepalive) is not supported, it's about time to get a new browsers. Those users should have taken their computers away for using year old software.
You can produce a problem by pressing reload fast and often. The connection is forced into reset each time, and sometimes Internet Explorer is sending a msg3 to an apache process that didn't send the msg1 yet. I'm not sure weather this is an apache or Linux or IE problem. It could be resolved by caching credentials, which is unsafe and involves neat things like file locking and mmap().

What's New in This Release:
Apache 1.3.x
