Description Krzysztof Lichota 2005-09-03 15:00:34 UTC

Version: (using KDE KDE 3.4.0)
Installed from: SuSE RPMs
OS: Linux

I am trying to access pages using https:// protocol from behind proxy. Windows server which is proxy is SBS (Small Business Server).
Konqueror does not ask for authentication and the following page appears:
The page cannot be displayed
There is a problem with the page you are trying to reach and it cannot be displayed.

Please try the following:
Click the Refresh button, or try again later.

Open the Web site home page, and then look for links to the information you want.
If you typed the page address in the Address bar, make sure that it is spelled correctly.

Verify that the Internet access policy on your network allows you to view this this page.
If you believe you should be able to view this directory or page, please contact the Web site administrator by using the e-mail address or phone number listed on the Web site home page.
HTTP 407 Proxy Authentication Required - The ISA Server requires authorization to fulfill the request. Access to the Web Proxy service is denied. (12209)
Internet Security and Acceleration Server
Technical Information (for support personnel)
Background:
The gateway could not retrieve the requested page.
ISA Server: sbs2k.men.edu.pl
Via:

Time: 2005-09-03 12:30:29 GMT

When I open the same page using Firefox, authentication dialog appears and after providing username and password I can view the page.
It is also not the problem of setting proxy in Konqueror preferences, as this is already set. I can browse normal pages (using HTTP) in Konqueror using this proxy.

Please, could you re-test against the newer Konqueror version like 3.5.9 and 4?

Comment 2 Krzysztof Lichota 2008-05-05 17:21:41 UTC

I no longer have an access to this machine, so I cannot check it.

ID box doesn't let you enter a username/password

Although this problem have been reported for KDE 3.4 , I now get the same problem with KDE 4.2 with Mandriva Cooker. Until KDE 4.1, I did not have this kind of problem : I have always been asked the password for my proxy server, but now I'm not. In addition, the identification box in konqueror is greyed out, see the attached image.

Additional information : it seems libkntlm doesn't work properly. Here's what I get in my ~/.xsession-errors :

kio_http(31510)/kio_http_debug HTTPProtocol::configAuth: Unsupported or invalid

I can confirm this in Konqueror 4.5.1. Have to use Firefox meanwhile :(

Comment 6 Adrián Chaves (Gallaecio) 2010-12-03 21:26:24 UTC

I'm not having this problem anymore with KDE 4.6 beta. Can anyone else confirm it?

This should work fine now. I spent a good couple of fixing NTLM related bugs with a generous and patient user who provided access to his servers for me to test against. Anyhow, if you still have such problems with KDE 4.6 and up, feel free to reopen this ticket.
