Hi all,

I am hoping someone here can help me with this quandary. I need to get an automated script working but it is being block by our client's MS ISA 2004 proxy server, which requires authentication.

This is not a problem in other clients who use squid proxy servers that require authentication. To get these to work I simply set the env variable in crontab as such:

http_proxy=http://user:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:8080

With this variable set the script has no problem passing through the proxy to work it's magic (wgetting updates). Unfortunately doing this with an ISA server has not been successful. I have tried doing this:

http_proxy=http://domain\user:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:8080
http_proxy=http://domain/user:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:8080
http_proxy=http://[EMAIL PROTECTED]:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:8080

Always it fails to work. What am I missing? Can someone please advise how to pass authentication information to an ISA proxy server? Thanks!
