I was looking around for a way to get a Python SOAP client to access a web
service hosted in such a way that NTLM authentication was needed. Lacking any
indication of built in support in SOAPpy to handle this I turned to trusted
old Google. I found this, a small
NTLM HTTP authentication proxy written in Python.
Configuration was a breeze, After putting in the domain (NT_DOMAIN) and the
user (USER), skipping password (PASSWORD) since it can be done
interactively it didn’t quite work. I had to tweak the values for LM_PART,
NT_PART, and NTLM_FLAGS, setting them to 1, 1, and 07820000
respecitvely.
I performed my testing downloading the WSDL file using wget.
