Richard Eckart de Castilho commented on MNG-4792:
-------------------------------------------------
We hit the problem that Maven does not download files from a public Artifactory
with partially private repositories as well. It turns out that disabling the
option "Hide Existence of Unauthorized Resources" in the Security General
Configuration of Artifactory also resolves the problem. Maven will send
username and password AFTER Artifactory has first denied access.
