Hi all,

now I'm sitting behind a MS ISA proxy and in order to download packages using fink, I am to use NTLM authentication. I'm using curl as a package downloader and curl is able to get through NTLM proxy. But by default fink calls curl as "curl -f -L" and it fails to get through firewall. I wasn't able to find any mention of using fink with NTLM firewalls. Is it possible either to to call curl from fink with custom options (such as --proxy-ntlm, -U etc) or solve this issue in another way?

There is no configuration option for such custom options, because there have not been many (any?) requests to have such a feature. Fink consisting of perl scripts, it is, however, not difficult to customize it by hand:

You can edit the file /sw/lib/perl5/Fink/NetAccess.pm
There is a line (around line 330)

         $cmd = "curl -f -L";

which you could modify according to your needs. With any new fink release, this will be overwritten, though.
