$ua->proxy() is not accepting username and password as parameters. I am having activestate perl on win32. $ua->env_proxy() is not helping. The environment variables are correctly set.
I worked around this by using my $req = HTTP::Request->new(GET => $url); $req->proxy_authorization_basic('username', 'password'); $mech->request( $req); and this worked fine. Now, This works well for HTTP but not for HTTPS. I am having Crypt::SSLeay But this approach doesn't work. So, when I try for example $mech->get("https://mail.yahoo.com/"); I again get 407 error..... It seems that UserAgent works differently for HTTP and HTTPS... correct me if I am wrong. regards, Prateek On 21 Oct 2005 05:29:42 -0700, Gisle Aas <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Prateek <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: > > > It seems that LWP::UserAgent does not support proxy with authentication. > > Proxies with authentication is supported.
