Will support be added to be able to connect through
a proxy that requires authentication ?
"reality is an illusion created by a lack of alcohol"

This appears to be provided through the http_user_name and http_user_passwd tags in client_state.xml though I have not tested it.

HI,

I tested it(Version 3.20), but had no success.

setting the HTTP_USER_NAME and HTTP_USER_PASSWD did not update the corresponding lines in client_state.xml
So I added it manually:
xxx
xxx

But still I get this:
2004-07-19 12:28:00 [---] HTTP_OP_SET::poll(): Proxy Authentication Failed
2004-07-19 12:28:00 [---] HTTP_OP_SET::poll(): Proxy Authentication Failed

And the proxy itself (I'm using squid), reports the try, but does not see the user.

So I checked on the net, and found nothing.

Seems either we need somthing like for authetification, or we have a bug.

Oops:
now I searched the boinc code as well and found the use_proxy_auth tag.
it looks like this:



....
xxxx
xxxx


Now I don't get the Auth message any more, so I assume it works.
