Syntax

IPWorksAuth.NTLM

Remarks

This class provides a simple API to create the required tokens for NTLM authentication.

The NTLM authentication process is a challenge-response scheme which consists of three messages. These three messages are the negotiation, challenge, and authentication. This class implements only the client side of NTLM and will create the negotiation and authentication tokens. The class does not transmit any data, it simply prepares the tokens for use in other transport protocols such as HTTP. The following steps describe how the component is used.

Create the Negotiate Token

To begin first set User and Password. The user value may contain domain information in the format "DOMAIN\User" or "user@domain". Next call CreateNegotiateToken to populate NegotiateToken. This token may then be transmitted separately. For instance in HTTP this would be sent in a request within the Authorization header: HTTPHeader = "Authorization: NTLM " + NegotiateToken

Create the Auth Token

After sending the negotiate token over the chosen transport protocol, the server will respond with a challenge token. Set ChallengeToken to the token received from the server. For instance, in HTTP the server will respond with the challenge token in the WWW-Authenticate header: 

WWW-Authenticate: NTLM <ChallengeToken>
After setting User, Password, and ChallengeToken call CreateAuthToken. This will populate AuthToken with the created token. This token may then be transmitted separately. For instance in HTTP this would be sent in the request within the Authorization header: HTTPHeader = "Authorization: NTLM " + AuthToken

Note: If the server requires EPA (Extended Protection for Authentication), then SSLServerCert must be set to the server's public certificate before calling CreateAuthToken.

    The special value "*" picks a random certificate in the certificate store.

    The certificate subject is a comma-separated list of distinguished name fields and values. For instance, "CN=www.server.com, OU=test, C=US, E=support@nsoftware.com". Common fields and their meanings are as follows:

    FieldMeaning
    CNCommon Name. This is commonly a hostname like www.server.com.
    OOrganization
    OUOrganizational Unit
    LLocality
    SState
    CCountry
    EEmail Address

    If a field value contains a comma, it must be quoted.

    encodedB
    Data
    Default Value: ""

    The certificate (PEM/Base64 encoded). This property is used to assign a specific certificate. The and properties also may be used to specify a certificate.

    When is set, a search is initiated in the current for the private key of the certificate. If the key is found, is updated to reflect the full subject of the selected certificate; otherwise, is set to an empty string.

    encoded
    String
    Default Value: ""

    The certificate (PEM/Base64 encoded). This property is used to assign a specific certificate. The and properties also may be used to specify a certificate.

    When is set, a search is initiated in the current for the private key of the certificate. If the key is found, is updated to reflect the full subject of the selected certificate; otherwise, is set to an empty string.

    Constructors

    public init()

    Creates a instance whose properties can be set. This is useful for use with when generating new certificates. 

    public init(encoded: )

    Parses Encoded as an X.509 public key. 

    public init(storeType: , store: , storePassword: , subject: )

    StoreType identifies the type of certificate store to use. See for descriptions of the different certificate stores. Store is a file containing the certificate store. StorePassword is the password used to protect the store.

    After the store has been successfully opened, the component will attempt to find the certificate identified by Subject . This can be either a complete or a substring match of the X.509 certificate's subject Distinguished Name (DN). The Subject parameter can also take an MD5, SHA-1, or SHA-256 thumbprint of the certificate to load in a "Thumbprint=value" format. 

    public init(storeType: , store: , storePassword: , subject: )

    StoreType identifies the type of certificate store to use. See for descriptions of the different certificate stores. Store is a byte array containing the certificate data. StorePassword is the password used to protect the store.

    After the store has been successfully opened, the component will attempt to find the certificate identified by Subject . This can be either a complete or a substring match of the X.509 certificate's subject Distinguished Name (DN). The Subject parameter can also take an MD5, SHA-1, or SHA-256 thumbprint of the certificate to load in a "Thumbprint=value" format.

    Config Settings (NTLM Module)

    The class accepts one or more of the following configuration settings. Configuration settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the class, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.

    NTLM Config Settings

    DecodeToken:   Whether to Base64 encode the token.

    This setting specifies whether to Base64 decode the ChallengeToken. The default value is True.

    EncodeToken:   Whether to Base64 encode the token.

    This setting specifies whether AuthToken and rpChallengeToken are Base64 encoded after calling CreateAuthToken and rmCreateNegotiateToken;. The default value is True.

    UsePlatformNTLMAPI:   Whether to use the platform NTLM API.

    This setting specifies whether to use the platform NTLM API. The default value is False.

    Workstation:   The workstation name.

    This setting optionally specifies the workstation name of the client. By default this value is empty and the class will automatically determine the correct value.

    Note: This setting is not applicable when UsePlatformNTLMAPI is True. The platform NTLM API will always use the current workstation's name.

    Base Config Settings

    BuildInfo:   Information about the product's build.

    When queried, this setting will return a string containing information about the product's build.

    CodePage:   The system code page used for Unicode to Multibyte translations.

    The default code page is Unicode UTF-8 (65001).
