Hi Paul,
Sorry, MQIPT doesn't support proxy authentication. I think you're only the
second person to ask for this feature. All I can say is that it's on the
requirements list for the next release of MQIPT.... if and when there is
one. Sorry I can't be more exact.

Subject: MQIPT through a
firewall
I'm trying to get an MQ connection going through a firewall in pretty much
the same configuration as the "Apache Rewrite" scenario as detalied in the
MQIPT manual. As you've probably already guessed - it's not working.
My HTTP proxy requires basic authentication. Here is the result from the
trace:
Time: 09:49:48.711 2003.09.02
Class: com.ibm.mq.ipt.ConnectionThread
Method: getHTTPHeader
Thread ID: ConnThd for Route 62000-0
Logger: TraceLogger 62000
HTTP/1.1 407 Proxy authentication required
Proxy-Authenticate: NTLM
Proxy-Authenticate: Basic realm="172.30.60.2"
Content-Length: 503
Content-Type: text/html
Time: 09:49:48.711 2003.09.02
Class: com.ibm.mq.ipt.ConnectionThread
Method: createHTTPConnection
Thread ID: ConnThd for Route 62000-0
Logger: TraceLogger 62000
MQCPE058 CONNECT request to myhost.mydomain.com(80) through ewprxy2(8080)
failed
Anyone know if it is possible to pass a userid/password to the HTTP proxy?
By the way, the actual setup is:
MQ Client -> Local MQIPT -> HTTP Proxy -> (firewall) -> Apache HTTP Server
-> MQIPT -> Target QMgr
Cheers,
Paul
