Q: How can I force JRE to use NTLM authentication? We have a 3rd party java applet that seems to be trying to use kerberos authentication by default. We believe it is responsible for timeouts and other issues. We don't use kerberos in our organization. We're not a java shop, but according to what we've discovered through google searches, we can set the 'http.auth.preference' setting to 'NTLM' on the command line if we're running a java application. But how do we set that for our java applet? Setting it through a <PARAM> tag doesn't seem to work.
