Re: Using tor in http proxied enviroment

[Alexandre Vieira <nullpt@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

I've installed privoxy so I can test with the firefox browser to check
what's really the error and I found this:

Aug 12 19:31:32.547 [notice] Tor v0.1.0.14. This is experimental software. Do no
t rely on it for strong anonymity.
Aug 12 19:31:32.688 [notice] Initialized libevent version 1.1a using method win3
2
Aug 12 19:31:34.662 [warn] connection_dir_client_reached_eof(): Received http st
atus code 407 ("Proxy authentication required") from server '12.217.34.216'. Fai
ling.
Aug 12 19:33:39.856 [notice] Tried for 60 seconds to get a connection to [scrubb
ed]:80. Giving up.


I configured tor with the correct proyx server, proxy username and
proxy password but tor doesn't seem to be able to auth properly in our
proxy server.

Does anyone know if tor has support for auth in a MS Network DOMAIN
proxy server?

Thanks
