Excerpts from Nick Coghlan's message of 2015-02-19 14:26 +10:00:
However, the qualified listings still came back as a login redirect
rather than giving me any data, even with a valid Kerberos ticket and
passing --negotiate to curl.
Yes, sigh... The API does not actually use standard HTTP authentication.
We can thank Kobo (and, indirectly, the limitations of xmlrpclib) for
that one.
Authentication is described here:
https://beaker-project.org/docs/server-api/xmlrpc.html#authentication
and RFE for accepting standard HTTP authentication:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1124139
although it's not straigh-forward due to compatibility with the existing
/login redirect and form-based auth we have for the web UI.
