Hi, I have been using twill for sometime for a website monitoring project and it has been working fine for checking all the internal websites and return me the status. What I do is basically write a twill script to check the websites performing a few actions and check for code 200 every stage.
But there was a requirement to check a site outside our company network. Since there was a proxy server I set the http_proxy environment variable using the script import os os.environ['http_proxy'] = 'http://local.proxy:80' This enables twill to direct the request to the proxy server but the proxy is not allowing twill without the authentication. I am not sure why the doamin authentication is not taken by default. I have also tried the syntax 'username:password:proxyhost:proxyport' but this gives me the same problem. Has anyone successfully worked with twill across a proxy server and has a solution for this authentication issue? Thank you. Regards, Sai
