------------------------------------------
Resolution: Won't Fix
> document how to use httpClient to proxy a http basic auth
> ---------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HTTPCLIENT-831
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-831
> Project: HttpComponents HttpClient
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: HttpClient
> Affects Versions: 3.1 Final
> Environment: debian stable, jdk1.5
> Reporter: Ralf Hauser
> Fix For: Future
>
>
> http://hc.apache.org/httpclient-3.x/authentication.html describes many
> aspects of authentication.
> We use httpClient to write a proxy and it simply writes back to the
> javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse whatever the httpClient GetMethod sees.
> Works fine for a static web-site.
> However, when the proxy (httpClient GetMethod) hits a page of the remote
> server that requires http basic auth, the response GetMethod copied to the
> javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse will not trigger a http basic auth
> request in my firefox that the proxy could pass through.
