| Doc Text: |
When connecting to a service that requires authentication, the wsmancli command (command line interface for managing
systems using Web Services Management protocol) returned an error message immediately after receiving an HTTP 401 Unauthorized response (for example, because of incomplete credentials).
The "Authentication failed, please retry" message was displayed, and the user was prompted for both the username, even if had been already provided, and the password.
The handling of authentication was improved to better conform to RFC 2616.
No error message is displayed on first authentication attempt. The command requires to input only credentials that were not provided already. Also the error message is printed only when the credentials were provided and authentication failed.
