Ivan,
the authentication framework and Basic authentication were added in
serf r1289 and svn r894053.
Feel free to help out on the NTLM and Negotiate handlers for Windows.
My Windows partition doesn't boot anymore so I won't be able to work
on this in the near future.
I'll add the Basic proxy, Digest and Kerberos authn handlers somewhere
in the days after new year, The kerberos handler will probably show up
some issues in the framework, you might want to wait 'till I get it
ported.
regards,
Lieven
