Description Paul Wyatt 2003-03-13 14:06:34 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.1)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs
Compiler:           Sorry I'm a newbie and not able to complier source code
OS:          Linux

I've installed SuSE Linux on a Windows NT dowmain. When trying to access the internet via a Windows 2000 ISA proxy server the following error message is received

  "Proxy Authentication Required"

I guess it has something to do with the NTLM authorization used by NT - I've searched the WWW and have not found any info to help configuration the Konqueror browser.

Hello, 
 
We do not currently support NTLM authorization at all since it is not an open protocol. All the 
information I have seen on it have been reverse engineered for the purpose of inter-operability.  
Anyways, you have to enable either Basic or Digest authentication in addition to NTLM 
authentication for now...

Hi,

Thanks, for the quick response.

Please can you point me to the appropriate documents to set this up (on SuSE
Linux)?

Regards, Paul Wyatt.

This is not a KDE or even a Linux issue. You can remedy the situation by setting up 
your proxy server or the web server in general to use a more standard 
authentication method, like Basic or Digest. 
 
As Dawit reported, NTLM is not an open protocol, so I wouldn't expect it anytime 
soon. The way I see it, it would probably require some information obtained from 
Samba, but I'm only guessing here. 
 
If you have code or information in general on how to authenticate against those 
methods, including any Open Source browser working with them, please contact the 
developers. For the moment, I'm afraid there's not much we can do.

Ok, another one. There is no reason to close as WONTFIX for now, but this one is a duplicate.
