I wonder if (depending on the authorization scheme?) you could use the multiuser xtra to authentificate at a http proxy server...?
Does anyone know more about this?

Thanks for that Valentin, Duck,

I actually stumbled across the proxyserver function after my post,
But looks like a client requires user\pass authentication on the proxy
server as well, so may need the xtra Duck suggested, although I also
found "UntimateNetXtra" as well which seems to be a better deal for
the
price.

Shame that the proxyserver function only seems to be "half
implemented"
I can't think of any good reasons why they wouldn't build in a method
for sending user pass parameters.

Cheers guys

hi tim,

look up
   proxyServer(serverType, "ipAddress", portNum)
in the help.

you can either get the proxy server's IP from the registry (pc,
require's some (free) xtra; on the mac there is propably some comand
to
use with shell xtra), or let the user specify it manually.

Hi,

Anyone know how I can use things like getNettext when the computer
uses
a proxy server to access the internet.

Do I need to use a 3rd party xtra like UltimateNetXtra, or is there a
way with just normal director lingo (MX 04)

Thanks

Tim
