Re: promoting maven @work / fail on proxy uname/pwd
Yes, thanks brett that's what i m trying to put in my colleagues mind.. they still think that having an http proxy username and password can open the door to even the most protected software in our company.. I'll keep u posted on this... it'll be really silly to drop maven/artifactory just for that/.. thanks again and regards marco On 11/3/07, Brett Porter [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Right - at the very least, even if you still need to use the proxy from there, you only have to configure the u/p in one place and it can be locked down to system administrators. - Brett On 04/11/2007, Marco Mistroni [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Yep, will certainly do On 11/3/07, Wayne Fay [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Yea, we talked it out a bit and he realized that actually only his Artifactory instance will be going outside the firewall (through the proxy), so he needs to focus his attention on giving that box permission to get out to the Internet.

Re: promoting maven @work / fail on proxy uname/pwd
The file is protected by NTFS ACL/security. If they don't trust that, what do they trust?? And its not like having the proxy name/pass is going to do a hacker a lot of good, unless it is a common name/pass that is shared across a lot of your equipment which is definitely not a best practice! A lot of people yell security! when they have no other reason to complain about something, but they just don't like it (change is hard/scary and Maven is new). Its a lot like the boy who cried wolf. If you can really drill down into their issue/problem, many times you can convince them that they are simply wrong...

Right - at the very least, even if you still need to use the proxy from there, you only have to configure the u/p in one place and it can be locked down to system administrators. - Brett On 04/11/2007, Marco Mistroni [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Yep, will certainly do On 11/3/07, Wayne Fay [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Yea, we talked it out a bit and he realized that actually only his Artifactory instance will be going outside the firewall (through the proxy), so he needs to focus his attention on giving that box permission to get out to the Internet.
