I need to get the HTML source of the web page. This web page is a part of the web site that requires NTLM authentication. This authentication is silent because Internet Explorer can use Windows log-in credentials. Is it possible to reuse this silent authentication (i.e. reuse Windows log-in credentials), without making the user enter his/her credentials manually?
The options I have tried are below.
string url = @"http://myWebSite";
//works fine
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("IExplore.exe", url);
InternetExplorer ie = null;
ie = new SHDocVw.InternetExplorer();
ie.Navigate(url);
//Works up to here, but I do not know how to read the HTML source with SHDocVw
NHtmlUnit.WebClient webClient = new NHtmlUnit.WebClient(BrowserVersion.INTERNET_EXPLORER_8);
HtmlPage htmlPage = webClient.GetHtmlPage(url);
string ghjg = htmlPage.WebResponse.ContentAsString; // Error 401
System.Net.WebClient client = new System.Net.WebClient();
client.Credentials = CredentialCache.DefaultNetworkCredentials;
client.Proxy.Credentials = CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;
// DefaultNetworkCredentials and DefaultCredentials are empty
client.Headers.Add("user-agent", "Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 6.1; Trident/4.0; GTB7.4; InfoPath.2; SV1; .NET CLR 3.3.69573; WOW64; en-US)");
string reply = client.DownloadString(url); // Error 401
HttpWebRequest request = HttpWebRequest.Create(url) as HttpWebRequest;
IWebProxy proxy = request.Proxy;
// Print the Proxy Url to the console.
if (proxy != null)
{
// Use the default credentials of the logged on user.
proxy.Credentials = CredentialCache.DefaultNetworkCredentials;
// DefaultNetworkCredentials are empty
}
request.UserAgent = "Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; MSIE 8.0; Windows NT 6.1; Trident/4.0; GTB7.4; InfoPath.2; SV1; .NET CLR 3.3.69573; WOW64; en-US)";
request.Accept = "*/*";
HttpWebResponse response = request.GetResponse() as HttpWebResponse;
Stream stream = response.GetResponseStream(); // Error 401
