Some notes on my own experience on using qgis through an isa proxy with ntlm authentication:
1-had to use cntlm to overcome ntlm authentication until recently (1.8 nightly) 2-have some erratic behavior, but the best configuration that works every time is setting the proxy type to httpproxy (not defaultproxy), then hostname without http:// or any domain, the username without domain prefix. That's it. I'd just like to add that this is a must to have qgis in a company. Without it working I wouldn't be even considering introducing qgis company wide, which I am planning now on doing ;) Duarte De: Giuseppe Sucameli [mailto:[email protected]] Enviada: quarta-feira, 24 de Agosto de 2011 18:56 Para: [email protected]; [email protected] Cc: [email protected] Assunto: Re: [Qgis-developer] Re: Release plans for 1.7.1 Hi Andrea, Luca, On Wed, Aug 24, 2011 at 5:48 PM, aperi2007 <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: >I discovered that with QGIS 1.6-1.7 WMS connection never uses proxy >user/password authentication, this is a big problem in corporate >environments. I filed the bug #3844. We discovered that also the plugin repository never uses proxy user/password. Perhaps will use the same classes ? It work only with proxy anonymous (without user/pwd). QGis uses a QT class (QNetworkAccessManager) to handle the user authentication, so I would exclude this is a QGis bug. Indeed if it were a QGis bug, e.g. an error in setting proxy host and port, then connection shouldn't have to work also without authentication. Both these problems may be related to a QT bug in NTLM(v2) authentication, see at [1]. @Luca: running the python plugin installer under the proxy, does it work? Regards. [1] https://bugreports.qt.nokia.com//browse/QTBUG-17322<https://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTBUG-17322> So to update the plugins we need to put the repositories in the white-list (very very bad practice for network administrators).
