NTLM Proxy Authorization

[George Vasiliou]

Hi to all,

I have made up a small client / server application with WinSock Control at
port 443, using VB6.

I have install server in my Home, and client is running behind a proxy
server.
Client cannot reach server, because proxy requires NTLM Authorization before
redirecting.

Is there any tested code , able to NTLM authenticate such a proxy server?

Regards

First off, don't multi-post or cross-post - chooese the correct forum (BTW,
this is the wrong one- you do not have a bug).

The Winsock control per se doesn't support proxy authentication, nor does it
really make much sense for it to do so (nor is there any obvious means of it
to do so).

Assuming you're using ISA Server as the proxy server, you don't actually
need to worry about it - just install the firewall client and everything
will happen under the covers. If you don't install the firewall client,
you're running in SecureNAT mode, and that is *by definition* without
authentication. For further information try a (single, not multiple!) ISA
Server forum or read up on ISA Server in the documentation or on
www.isaserver.org. If you're using another proxy, consult the documentation
that came with that product.

And if you're unsure of which forum to post to, or more than one seems to
apply, a limited amount of cross-posting is acceptable...8 different forums
is a little excessive, however.
