Firefox and NTLM Authentication
Posted on July 10, 2008
Firefox dislikes NTLM authentication really. Sometimes it hates it completely.
Specifically when you make AJAX requests from an NTLM authenticated server.
Fortunately, with a bit of counselling there is a resolution on hand.Open about:config in Firefox and filter for the line network.automatic-ntlm-auth.trusted-uris
Here you can add a comma seperated list of your NTLM authenticated servers.
Job's done!
