http_proxy and https_proxy not working on domain...
Hi,
I'm on a Windows domain and Skype on OSX doesn't work. It bugs out with MS Forefront/Squid and locks my AD account (despite everything else working with the system wide http / https proxy in OSX).
My colleagues on Windows / Linux machines don't have this problem. I as a result have installed a Linux VM and tried to set the proxy via:
export http_proxy=http://DOMAIN\USERNAME:PASSWORD@SERVER:PORT/ export htts_proxy=http://DOMAIN\USERNAME:PASSWORD@SERVER:PORT/
BUT i'm not getting any connectivity. Is it perhaps the way Linux is trying to parse the \ after the DOMAIN name?
I've tried to use a \\ and a %5C or %40 when setting the export (noting that %5C is the encoding for a backslash and %40 is the encoding for the at sign.)
Examples:
export http_proxy=http://DOMAIN\\USERNAME:PASSWORD@SERVER:PORT/ export htts_proxy=http://DOMAIN\\USERNAME:PASSWORD@SERVER:PORT/ OR export http_proxy=http://DOMAIN\USERNAME:PASSWORD@SERVER:PORT/ export https_proxy=http://DOMAIN\USERNAME:PASSWORD@SERVER:PORT/ OR export http_proxy=http://USERNAME@DOMAIN:PASSWORD@SERVER:PORT/ export htts_proxy=http://USERNAME@DOMAIN:PASSWORD@SERVER:PORT/

I'm not clear what are you asking
the right format http(s)_proxy :
user:password@server:port
@tommy - it's a Windows domain so the format needs to be:
domain\username:password@host:port
Which doesn't work. Trying it with an @ and the encodings for @ and \ also don't work.
I need to see if my formatting is correct or not...
This may also have something to do with my VM being NAT'd - can't do direct as i'm on WiFi at the moment... however yum works via the proxy just fine...
