Thanks Dave. Putting another proxy between us and the NTML proxy was a possiblity mentioned here so that is really useful. Ye I realise it is proporietory Microsoft stuff but as I said that surely must make it relatively common? I know little about this stuff, suspect I'll be finding out a lot more than I would like.
BTW, didn't mean to send it directly to you as well. -----Original Message----- From: Dave Watts [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 20 June 2002 14:44 To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Cc: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: RE: Web-Services and proxy server > > Ummm.

Actually, this might provide a workaround! http://www.geocities.com/rozmanov/ntlm/ You'd have to set this up as a proxy itself, and have it forward to your "real" proxy server, I think.
