I have web service secured with SPNego (HTTP challenge returns WWW-Authenticate: Negotiate). This security mode is also referred as Windows integrated authentication. Is it possible to use SoapUI to test this service? It looks like SoapUI (4.0.0) ends communication once it gets challenge 401 HTTP response instead of following negotiation algorithm.
