[Bug 137418] Re: add ntlm (MS) proxy support (wishlist)
Hi, this bug prevents me from using ubuntu/debian from my workplace where my employer uses a NTLM proxy authentication to reach the internet, I had the same problem with fedora and its yum package manager, in fedora they use curl to download http requests so adding NTLM support was just a one-liner patch, see: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=769254#c3 whereas in debian/ubuntu apt-get uses a custom c++ implementation of http protocol[1] so adding NTLM proxy authentication support is a non trivial issue, on the other hand apt uses libcurl for https requests[2] so I will send the one-liner patch to support it. The solution for this bug would be: - Port http download code to libcurl, same way https code is already using it. - As a workaround till prior step is done the ntlmaps package[3] should be included by default in debian/ubuntu so any user behind a NTLM authenticated proxy can *use* apt-get to install/update any package.

[Bug 137418] Re: add ntlm (MS) proxy support (wishlist)
As mentioned in my above comment, because apt uses libcurl for accessing https urls, we can easily have support for NTLM and several other proxy authentication methods [1] thanks to libcurl. It is a pity that the http code in contrast does not use libcurl.

[Bug 137418] Re: add ntlm (MS) proxy support (wishlist)
Hi. Same problem with 8.04.1. i'm using an Isa server proxy. I installed ntlmaps and it's good for Firefox, but i'm not able to apt-get update by Update manager. I entered all the informations (proxy, port (8080), userid, password) in Synaptics Packages Manager but it doesn't work. I receive a 407 proxy... All is fine if i use a Squid proxy (with userid+password+port 8080) Best regards. -- add ntlm (MS) proxy support (wishlist) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/137418 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
