I don't know anything about Windows authentication, but I could get some hints from Ivan Zhakov via IRC (he doesn't follow this mailing list). Perhaps this information helps: Apparently, if the server uses NTLM only, serf cannot authenticate to it, while neon could. serf supports SPNego though: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SPNEGO Does this apply to your situation? Can you fix the problem by changing the server's configuration? The 1.8 release notes currently do not document the issue with NTLM-only servers. In my opinion they should mention it.
