Support NTCredentials in HttpConnectProxiedSocketAddress
Is your feature request related to a problem?
Yes - I'm the author of the Spark BigQuery connector which uses gRPC internally to communicate to the GCP APIs. A user is requesting to add support for NT Credentials for proxies.
Describe the solution you'd like
From the user's desription:
our proxy server only support NTCredentials to pass Authcations, we need to build a generic way to support Username, NT, Kerberos Poxy Auth. for our code we just need to replace usernamepasswordCredentials(user,pass) by NTCredentials(user,pass,null, region)
Describe alternatives you've considered
It seems there are none
Additional context
@davidrabinowitz are you planning to add this support?
We are okay with this feature, assuming it doesn't bring in a large dependency. But we aren't likely to work on this naturally. Just testing it would be an effort. A contribution or making this a priority within Google are the most likely ways for this to happen.
