----------------------------------
Summary: Legacy Kerberos in management, unable to configure fallback
authentication.
Key: WFLY-7993
URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-7993
Project: WildFly
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Security
Reporter: Martin Choma
Assignee: Darran Lofthouse
Priority: Blocker
In EAP 7.0 there was possible to configure fallback (e.g. BASIC) authentication, if client
does not support SPNEGO authentication. In EAP 7.1 this feature does not work anymore.
In EAP 7.0 server returns multiple chalanges (Negotiate/Basic) and client could choose
which he will use.

In EAP 7.1 (with same configuration) server returns only one chalange - Negotiate so
client not supporting SPNEGO, can't fallback to Basic.
