JMeter with Windows Authentication?

Question

I am using JMeter to load test some pages that reside in a SharePoint 2007 Site. The farm that contains the pages resides in a different domain than the machine running the test, and uses Windows Authenticiation. The connection to the server is over an unencrypted (non-SSL) connection. Because of this, I need to pass login credentials to the server.

How do I configure JMeter to login to the server using windows authentication?

Choosing Java as the HTTP Request implementation did the trick for me; neither HttpClient3.1 nor HttpClient4 worked (both returned 401 errors). I did not need to use an HTTP Authorization Manager at all, presumably because it's utilizing my own domain credentials automatically (as my Windows PC is connected to the domain). – Nick Jones Nov 27 '12 at 21:15

Well that's odd, I posted that one from the office and not I am at home and still works. Using Safari on Mac (posted originally from Chrome on Windows) – Francisco Aquino Nov 26 '09 at 00:35

Thats weird. The site must have been down. Its working now. – Kyle Trauberman Nov 26 '09 at 01:51
That link refers to an issue using JMeter over SSL. I'm not trying to connect over SSL. – Kyle Trauberman Nov 26 '09 at 01:52
I meant to show you the section where he sets username and password in the post. check this one: http://jakarta.apache.org/jmeter/usermanual/component_reference.html#HTTP_Authorization_Manager – Francisco Aquino Nov 26 '09 at 13:25
I tried this and it worked. One thing to note: jmeter has an HTTP Request and a HTTP Client sampler. I had to use the HTTP Client sampler to get this to work. – Kyle Trauberman Nov 30 '09 at 22:32

Add HTTP Authorization Manager to the Thread Group.

Using [domain]username[@realm] as your Windows login example.

BASE URL: [yourdomainurl]

USERNAME: [domain\username] <- UPPERCASE ONLY

PASSOWORD: [password]

This work for my case.
