Hi,

I try to use JMeter (latest version) with a website built with Spring-Security where user authentication is managed by NTLM.

When JMeter requests the URL, the server answers that it is waiting an NTLM authentication.
In its response, the server provides also cookie with the JSESSION id.
When JMeter answers with the NTLM authentication, the JSESSION cookie is missing.
Why?

Here are the headers:

***************

User-Agent: Java/1.6.0_10

And here is my JMeter config:
