Node.js HTTP client with kerberos/gssapi/negotiate/spnego authentication

http_client_spnego.js

//
// tested with kerberos 0.0.12 on linux against apache running mod_auth_kerb with Samba AD providing KDC
//
var Kerberos = require('kerberos').Kerberos;
var kerberos = new Kerberos();
var http = require('http');

function httpget(opts, callback) {
	console.log('submitting to '+(opts.hostname||opts.host)+' with authorization header: '+(opts.headers||{}).authorization);
	var req = http.get(opts, function(res) {
		if (res.statusCode == 401) {
			submitWithAuthorization(req, opts, callback);
			return;
		}
		callback(res);
	});
	return req;
}

function submitWithAuthorization(oldreq, opts, callback) {
	kerberos.authGSSClientInit("HTTP@"+(opts.hostname || opts.host), 0, function(err, ctx) {
		if (err) {
			throw new Error(""+err);
		}
		console.log('done init '+ctx);

			var headers = opts.headers || {};
			headers.authorization = "Negotiate "+ctx.response;
			opts.headers = headers;
			var newreq = httpget(opts, callback);

			// tell oldReq "owner" about newReq. resubmit is an "unofficial" event
			oldreq.emit('resubmit', newreq);
			kerberos.authGSSClientClean(ctx, function(err) {

var options = {

};

var req = httpget(options, function(res) {
	var body = '';
	res.on('data', function(chunk) {
		body += chunk;
	});

return;

What can be done to make it work on Windows?
