Setting a null realm on the credentials should do the trick.

Can anyone offer any advice with this situation...
We have a virtual proxy id which hides 3 physical proxy servers. This means that when we connect using httpclient to the host "OURPROXY", we could be connected to any one of those three servers.
The API requires us to specify the realm. e.g.
credentials = new UsernamePasswordCredentials(proxyUid, proxyPwd) client.getState().setProxyCredentials("myproxy1.myco.com", "OURPROXY", credentials);
The code checks the data supplied, against the proxy challenge returned in the headers. As we could get any one of 3 servers "myproxy1.myco.com", "myproxy2.myco.com", "myproxy3.myco.com", the code often fails.
The only way I can think of to get round this issue, is to manually open a connection to the URL, read the challenge header info from the response, parse the proxy realm from it and pass it into the setProxyCredentials method.
Any thoughts?
