Node.js NTLM Client (Legacy)

This package, `node-ntlm-client` at version 0.1.2, provides a client-side implementation for NTLM and NTLMv2 authentication in Node.js environments. It exposes functions for generating NTLM Type 1 and Type 3 messages, and decoding Type 2 messages, enabling developers to implement the NTLM handshake manually. It also includes a `request` convenience function that relies on the now-deprecated `request` HTTP client library. This package has seen no updates in approximately ten years and is considered abandoned, making it unsuitable for new projects. Modern alternatives typically use native Node.js `http`/`https` modules or other maintained HTTP clients, often with fewer external dependencies and better support for contemporary Node.js versions and language features like ESM.
