Hello ~

Integrated (which includes Negioate and NTLM) is not supported outside the
local network. The reason being is that for Negotiate, kerberos requires
that all clients authenticating have trusted connections to the Key
Distribution Center (KDC) and this just isn't likely or possible since most
KDC's are Active Directory...

For NTLM, it requires HTTP Keep-Alives which a lot of proxies don't like and
hence it is troublesome to get working. It isn't likely that every point
from a to b supports keep-alives or NTLM when hitting the internet...

HTH,
