From source file:org.ybygjy.httpclient.AlternateAuthenticationExample.java

public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
    HttpClient client = new HttpClient();
    client.getState().setCredentials(new AuthScope("myhost", 80, "myrealm"),
            new UsernamePasswordCredentials("username", "password"));
    // Suppose the site supports several authetication schemes: NTLM and Basic
    // Basic authetication is considered inherently insecure. Hence, NTLM authentication
    // is used per default

    // This is to make HttpClient pick the Basic authentication scheme over NTLM & Digest
    List authPrefs = new ArrayList(3);
    authPrefs.add(AuthPolicy.BASIC);
    authPrefs.add(AuthPolicy.NTLM);//from  w  w w.  ja v a2s .c  o  m
    authPrefs.add(AuthPolicy.DIGEST);
    client.getParams().setParameter(AuthPolicy.AUTH_SCHEME_PRIORITY, authPrefs);

    GetMethod httpget = new GetMethod("http://localhost:8080/index.html");

    try {
