If this property is set to amNTLM (2) NTLM authentication will be used.
If this property is set to amKerberos (6) Kerberos authentication will be used. NOTE: This functionality is only available in Windows.
When set to amXOAUTH2 (7) set User to the username and AuthorizationIdentity to the OAuth token. See AuthorizationIdentity for details.
