Feature Request: add support for windows authentication
Hi.
Thank you for vagrant-vsphere.
I would like to request the ability to support windows authentication when logging into the vsphere server.
For example, when using the VMware vSphere windows desktop client, when I select to "Use Windows session credentials", the username and password fields become disabled and my current username (domain\username) is automatically specified in the username field.
I would like to use the same windows credentials when using vagrant-vsphere.
Thank you.
depends on https://github.com/vmware/rbvmomi/issues/34
This is now possible since SSPI support was added upstream. I have a pull request I can contribute, but am unsure whether or not a fork of rbvmomi is being used, which fork, and whether we'll need a new (rebased) release of that fork in order to update the dependency here.
not a fork: https://github.com/nsidc/vagrant-vsphere/blob/master/vSphere.gemspec#L17 But we will need a new release of rbvmomi itself.
Thank you for this work!
They released literally the day after the exchange above (and it made it to rubygems a while later); I just didn't realize. :) I've created PR #223 to fulfill this enhancement request.
