I'm at trying to authenticate with a server that uses NTLM. However it
doesn't set the www-authenticate header. The handler assumes this value
exists and tries set it to lower. Since the server doesn't return that
header, python throws an exception about None not having a lower method.
Traceback (most recent call last):
