Hello,
I have read information in lynx about SOCKS Proxy, but it didn't give
me enough knowledge to tell if that is what I am looking for. All I
know is the trying lynx, gives the following:
Proxy authorization required
Proxy authorization required
Username authentication is required for using this proxy. Either your
browser does not perform proxy authorization, or your authorization
has failed.
It never asks me for the password and username, so I don't know how
to add it. I have been looking for information on this in the
HTTP (rfc 1945) and on the internet. I didn't find anything. The
code it returns is 407. Talking directly to the port gives this:
sun1464$ ~/bin/hose onramp 8080 -slave < utdallas
HTTP/1.0 407 Proxy authorization required
Proxy-agent: Netscape-Proxy/1.12
Date: Friday, 05-Sep-97 17:12:23 GMT
Proxy-authenticate: basic realm="WWW Proxy User Access"
Content-type: text/html
Content-length: 271
<HTML><HEAD><TITLE>Proxy authorization required</TITLE></HEAD>
<BODY><H1>Proxy authorization required</H1>
Username authentication is required for using this proxy.
Either your browser does not perform proxy authorization, or your
authorization has failed.
</BODY></HTML>sun1464$
I am not even able to figure out how the client is supposed to
send authorization. I tried both of the following fields:
Proxy-authenticate:
Authorize:
(Both of them I used basic with a mmencoded "username:passwd"
eg. Authorize: basic amVmZnJleTpncm93dXAK )
