NTLM Proxy Authentication

[Tim Hoke]

Hello Everyone,

I'm trying to take v6.06 of LWP (and the corresponding v6.06 of LWP::Protocol::https) and connect to an https endpoint through an NTLM Authenticated http proxy.  I've managed to make the CONNECT method work for basic authentication via pull request 56 (https://github.com/libwww-perl/libwww-perl/pull/56), but I'm not able to get NTLM authentication working.

I've tried bringing in benningm's proxy auth pull request (https://github.com/libwww-perl/libwww-perl/pull/49) and I can make it NTLM authentication work if I've got an http endpoint, just not to an https endpoint.  I suspect it's because of the CONNECT method required for proxying https connections via http.

FWIW, I've also made a modification to LWP::UserAgent:

$ diff -u UserAgent.pm-orig UserAgent.pm

--- UserAgent.pm-orig 2014-04-29 12:15:20.000000000 -0500

+++ UserAgent.pm 2014-05-20 14:51:48.595255000 -0500

     return $self->credentials($uri->host_port, $realm);

 }

Does anyone have any pointers on how I might resolve this?

Thanks
