Proxy Authentication Problems

Firstly good morning/afternoon/evening to all of you.
This will be my first post on these forums, and now that I have found them I hope they will be of some help to me in the future.
I work for the largest media company in South Africa, specifically as an Apple Technician. The company owns/runs numerous magazines and newspapers thus we have quite a large amount of Apples in the building/s.
Now on to the problem at hand.
Naturally in this corporate environment we have a HTTP Proxy.
Problem is with a Powerbook that just won't authenticate to the proxy. Everytime you try and do a Software Update or use Safari it just rejects the details and brings the username/password box back up.
Things that do work...
1. The machine does have an IP, so network connectivity is fine from the DHCP server side.
2. Email works perfectly.
3. The Proxy is working fine, with the same username details on another machine.
What I have done...
Well basically everything. Normally these sort of issues are related to the Keychain having trouble, so I've deleted all entries from the Keychain, even resetted it to defaults and then restarted but still no luck.
When I try to do a software update it just brings up the Network Diagnosis box.
Also tried creating a new location, which didn't help.
Also tried deleting the relevant (at least what I think would be) preferences files and that just ended up nailing some other stuff I'll need to fix (like locations)
I'm hoping somebody out there has had this before, because I really don't want to reinstall because of this.
Looking forward to your replies!

Just to add to this thread as I think my situation is similar. I am in a corporate environment as well and on my windows pc am set up to use a wpad.dat file for autodiscovery of proxy settings.
I have successfully managed to configure Firefox 1.5 to get to the internet by looking at the proxy.pac file and putting the ip address and port of the proxy server in as the http proxy (and setting all protocols to use that ip/port as well).
Though when I set that same ip/port in the global properties settings for safari et al, it continually prompts me for my username/password but when I supply them it does not work. I have tried every combination of how to enter my username: domain\username, domain/username [email protected], etc.
The end result is that I cannot reach the internet with safari or any other programs that rely on the global network settings (dashboard widgets,etc).
Does anyone know a work around? This is my first post as well and am hoping to get some help.
Thanks!

ITunes 10.6 Proxy Authentication Problem

As all we know, since we've installed iTunes 10.6, we're having issues with proxy authentication. Whenever i want to connect to iTunes Store or open iTunes it always asks me about my username and password even thoug i check Remember Me check box.
I wonder if you did gave any feedback or answer from Apple?
Thanks

same issue, even w/ the 10.6.3 update.
very disappointing.
looks like this thread is a duplicate of https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3803634?start=0&tstart=0

Toplink Proxy Authentication with 10.1.3 problem

Hi,
I'm are using Toplink Proxy Authentication in a JSF application with SessionFacade pattern and have implemented a preLogin() method of oracle.itech.pil.utils.PILSessionEventManager (which implements SessionEventListener) as described in
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/ias/toplink/doc/1013/main/_html/dblgcfg008.htm. Due to Class Loader problem while loading of SessionEventManager, I'm explicitly loading the Class by doing this:
try {
Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader().loadClass("oracle.itech.pil.utils.PILSessionEventManager");
catch(Exception exp) {
System.out.println("Exception while loading class oracle.itech.pil.utils.PILSessionEventManager "+exp.toString());
The SessionEventManager is loaded by doing this:
session.getEventManager().addListener(new PILSessionEventManager());
(Encountered while using <event-listener-class>oracle.itech.pil.events.PILSessionEventManager</event-listener-class> in sessions.xml file, so removed and added the same using session.getEventManager().addListener(new PILSessionEventManager()) )
But now, I'm encountering ClassCastException during the login to my application
The below pasted exception (oracle.oc4j.rmi.OracleRemoteException: java.lang.ClassCastException: oracle.itech.pil.utils.PILSessionEventManager) is coming when invoking line (Login)session.readObject(oracle.itech.pil.model.Login.class, expression);

Any clue why this error, which i am facing since 10 days to complete my task
Thanks In Advance
Prashant

James, what Venkat and Prashant are trying to do is something like this...
1. If I connect to the DB using scott/tiger then in the preLogin method of the Toplink Session Listener class, the proxy user will connect using something like admin/welcome1 and in the database audit view, the name that shows up SHOULD BE that of admin and NOT of scott. This is called proxy authentication if it works fine.
We developed the above scenario but in the audit logs, we still see scott instead of admin as the user who connected.
2. This feature is available in the DB but our objective is to use it through TopLink
Also see Toplink Proxy Authentication Not Working
I hope I was able to explain the scenario clearly.
Any help will be appreciated
Regards,
Amit

Mac Adobe Flash Player not supporting Web Proxy Authentication

Anyone else got an enterprise network where you use web proxies with web authentication and no traffic allowed out except through the proxies?
You may need to be in the UK for this, but try accessing BBC iPlayer content - http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer and you should discover that the content won't play. the error says "This content doesn't seem to be working. Try again later.". The content will never work as the Mac version of Flash (currently 10.1.53.64) is not able to respond to web proxy authentication requests. The BBC use various streaming server which are randomly selected when a user starts a stream and they have no DNS. Just IP addresses. They don't publish a list for security reasons. So it is almost impossible to exempt all their servers from authentication.
I've logged a bug with Adobe. If you have this issue too, please add a comment and vote so that they can begin to grasp the impact of this problem:
https://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FP-5161

I have the same issues in Australia trying to access flash content from the ABC website. The strange thing is the content will play if your leave the browser open for 5min.
After several packet data captures we identified that it has to do with the amount of time it takes the Mac timeout from the proxy before it plays the video content.
No solution yet.

How to set proxy authentication using java properties at run time

Hi All,
How to set proxy authentication using java properties on the command line, or in Netbeans (Project => Properties
=> Run => Arguments). Below is a simple URL data extract program which works in absence of firewall:
import java.io.*;
import java.net.*;
public class DnldURLWithoutUsingProxy {
 public static void main (String[] args) {
 URL u;
 InputStream is = null;
 DataInputStream dis;
 String s;
 try {
 u = new URL("http://www.yahoo.com.au/index.html");
 is = u.openStream(); // throws an IOException
 dis = new DataInputStream(new BufferedInputStream(is));
 BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(dis));
 String strLine;
 //Read File Line By Line
 while ((strLine = br.readLine()) != null) {
 // Print the content on the console
 System.out.println (strLine);
 //Close the input stream
 dis.close();
 } catch (MalformedURLException mue) {
 System.out.println("Ouch - a MalformedURLException happened.");
 mue.printStackTrace();
 System.exit(1);
 } catch (IOException ioe) {
 System.out.println("Oops- an IOException happened.");
 ioe.printStackTrace();
 System.exit(1);
 } finally {
 try {
 is.close();
 } catch (IOException ioe) {
}However, it generated the following message when run behind the firewall:

Acrobat Standard Proxy Authentication

Hi,
When we sign our PDF's we want to use an external timestamping server
So we have configured both a Verisign and Globalsign timestamping server and made one of them as default
Most of the time we got a response from Acrobat saying
"Timestamp signature property generation error:
Transport authorization failure"
When it fails the doc is signed, but using the computers clock and we want to avoid that
But sometime it did work which confused us but I think we have identified the problem with the Proxy authentication
Our proxy requires full authetication against our Active Directory
So when it worked was just because we just before signing had been surfing on the internet and the proxy had cached the credential approvals
So when Adobe tried to get out to the timestamp server the ID was already authorized in the proxy
But without a previous "IE-surfing" it fails, the proxy has nothing in its cache
A network trace confirms this, we see a "Authentication required" request from the proxy that Acrobat never responds to
The proxy does not accept annonymous requests
IE is configured to use a configration script for its proxy settings
I cant find any relevant Acrobat settings that handles this and googling indicates that Acrobat has problems in this area
But I haven't found anything for our version/release
Now for the question, is Adobe Acrobat Standard 9.3.0 supposed to handle proxys that requires AD authentication?
To bypass the proxy is not an option
Setting a proxy exception for these servers is maybe an option
Prefered is that Acrobat handles this

To update my own question since it might help others
I received assistance through the Adobe support channels
Not what I was hoping for but it clarifies the problem
The reason I asked the question is that we don’t support Shared Review with an Authenticating Proxy server. So this customer workflow isn’t too far off the mark with having a proxy server authentication expectation in the standalone client and wanting a timestamp server time. The only workaround to this behavior is to do exactly what they have found. Launch an instance of Internet Explorer, authenticate against the proxy server and then sign the PDF file.

Http proxy authentication for JDev 10.1.3

Hi,
I found the http proxy settings in the "tools->preferences->Web Browser and Proxy" but there are no settings for the username and password. Is there some other way that I can add these.
The problem is that whenver JDeveloper wants to do some http stuff it (or something else is doing it) asks me for the proxy user name & password - this happens over and over again. If JDev is doing this then surely it should remember the username & password.
I sometimes get a JDeveloper dialog "waiting for the connection" come up over the proxy auth dialog and I have to cancel the function so I can authenticate, then re-request the function.
I wish I didn't have the proxy authentication but I have no choice in this dev environment. I do get to choose JDeveloper at least.
Regards,
Simon.

Hi,
I get it when I 'check for updates' and I get it again when I 'go to JavaDoc' - and this is the one where the "waiting for connection dialog" pops on top of the proxy log in and I have to cancel it to log in. Then all subsequent 'go to JavaDoc' requests go straight through.
I would prefer it if I could just configure (in proxy preferences) the username and password so it never asks me. I dont care if it less secure storing the password since I think authenticating proxies are a dumb idea anyway. If the password is not supplied then JDev can ask for it like it does now to keep the security-paranoid people happy.
Also, this morning I got this Exception which appeared at the same time I got a proxy auth window. When JDev finally started all my previously open windows were lost. No real problem but unexpected. Here is the stack dump:

Proxy Authentication Error in Web Service with SAAJ on Weblogic 9.2 MP3

Hi,
I have encountered a problem with proxy authentication in SAAJ web service (WS) calls on Weblogic 9.2 MP3.
My WS client (which uses SAAJ's SOAP classes) should use a proxy that requires authentication to call the external web services.
However, it does not perform the authentication and receives HTTP Error 407 - Unauthorized.
The reason seems to be that Weblogic's Http Handler (weblogic.net.http.Handler) ignores the proxy authentication.
I was able to work around it by setting sun's http handler explicitly in the WS endpoint URL. Sun's handler (sun.net.www.protocol.http.Handler) makes use of the Authenticator class I provided.
1. Please see my code below and let me know if this is the only solution or if I'm doing something wrong. While testing on Tomcat I did not have to set the handler.
2. I have seen that there are also System properties for http.proxyUser and http.proxyPasword, however if I use these and ommit setting the SimpleAuthenticator, it also fails (with either handler!). An explanation of that is welcome.
Thanks in advance.
Code:
===========================================================
System.setProperty("http.proxySet", "true");
System.setProperty("http.proxyHost", "localhost");
System.setProperty("http.proxyPort", "808");
//System.setProperty("http.proxyUser", "myuser");
//System.setProperty("http.proxyPassword", "mypw");
Authenticator.setDefault(new SimpleAuthenticator("myuser", "mypw"));
String urlString = "http://someurl:8080/webservice..";
URL endpoint1 = new URL(urlString);
URL endpoint2 = new URL(null, urlString, new sun.net.www.protocol.http.Handler());
SOAPConnectionFactory soapfactory = SOAPConnectionFactory.newInstance();
SOAPConnection connection = soapfactory.createConnection();
connection.call(message, endpoint1); // Gives Exception with HTTP Error 407
connection.call(message, endpoint2); // Works and uses the proxy
For reference:
===========================================================
public class SimpleAuthenticator extends Authenticator {
     private String username, password;
     public SimpleAuthenticator(String username, String password) {
          this.username = username;
          this.password = password;
     protected PasswordAuthentication getPasswordAuthentication() {
          return new PasswordAuthentication(username, password.toCharArray());
}

Sorry for the 3 posts.
Administrator, delete this thread please!!

Is Proxy Authenticated or not in Applet


Hi Everyone,


I need to show proxy details to the user in an applet and I got the proxy host and port by using the JDK API and I need to check is the proxy is authenticated or not and I used the below code in the applet


public boolean checkHttpAuthentication() {


logger.info("Start of detecting proxy authentication settings");
HttpURLConnection urlConnection = null;


try {


String host = SiteSurveyAppletConstants.HTTP_PROXY_DETECT_URL;


URL url = new URL(host);


urlConnection = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();


urlConnection.setDoInput(true);


urlConnection.setDoOutput(true);


urlConnection.setUseCaches(false);


int statusCode = urlConnection.getResponseCode();


logger.info("statusCode : " + statusCode);


if(statusCode == HTTPStatusCodes.SC_PROXY_AUTHENTICATION_REQUIRED) {


isProxyAuthenticated = true;




} catch (Exception e) {


System.out.print("Error occured while sending data to the server\n" + e);




logger.info("End of detecting proxy authentication settings");


return isProxyAuthenticated;




When I access the applet a dialog box (Firefox browser dialog box) is prompting to enter the user credential and applet is loaded into the browser after entering the user credentials, but if you see the code in above snippet, it's not returning me the 407 status code, it's returning me the 200.


In my application applet will first fetch the proxy settings and will do some processing (connecting to the server) and will load into the browser. So for connecting to the server I need to know whether the proxy is authenticated or not. If it is authenticated then I need to open a dialog box asking the user to enter the credentials and will use those credentials for connecting back to the server


Can anyone help me what is causing the problem


Thanks


Hi,
MINUS does two full table scans & removes matches after whereas NOT IN does a full table scan of table 1 then for each row it searches through table two...assuming you have two proper tables e.g.:
TABLE1: 20,000 rows in 1000 blocks
TABLE2: 10,000 rows in 500 blocks
Reads required for minus:
Full scan of TABLE1 = 1000 blocks
+
Full scan of Table2 = 500 blocks
= 1500 reads
Reads required for NOT IN:
Full scan of TABLE1 = 1000 blocks
20,000 lookups in TABLE2 = 20,000 x (depth of index on TABLE2)
= 21,000 at least
So a lot more work is done with NOT IN. Taken from here. Note the gets:

SCCM 2012 R2 ADR issue with proxy authentication

Hi,
We're migrating SCCM 2007 to SCCM 2012 R2.
In SCCM 2007, the proxy server is configured with user authentication, and this works.
In SCCM 2012 R2, the Software Update Point is installed locally and connected with a local WSUS 4.0 (Server 2012)
We use a proxy with user authentication for Update Deployment. (This user is the same as configured in SCCM 2007.)
The Proxy Server is Blue Coat SG.
The proxy account is used for:
The Synchronization works, but Automatic Deployment Rule (ADR) doesn't work.
When an Automatic Deployment Rule is started, it tries to authenticate 3 times.

It seems that the ADR uses a wrong password when authenticating with the proxy, but this same user works when synchronizing with WSUS.
We performed the following actions with no result:
run the ADR manually and automatic,
reinstalled WSUS and SUP,
changed proxy user account.

Currently, the command shows:
Current WinHTTP proxy settings:
 Direct access (no proxy server).
We've been testing with:
upddwnldcfg.exe /s:<proxyserver>:<port> /u:<user> /allusers
psexec -i -s iexplore.exe, set Internet Explorer proxy manually
All with same result, proxy user getting locked when ADR runs.
(These settings have been removed after the test.)
I think dekac99 would suggest netsh winhttp set proxy or import proxy.
then turn off proxy use on the role SUP (this way not SCCM will send auth but all winhttp will use proxy)
the problems with that for me are:
- if MS implemented role-based proxy usage, why set at http layer - of course this might work as a workaround for the time being so it might be a good idea but I'm just not sure what unwanted issues it may cause
- the other thing is where I'm not sure, with set proxy you cannot define authentication account. if you use import from IE and the IE prompted for proxy auth, the stored credential will be used on winhttp layer (though I'm not 100% sure of that) - so this
is just too uncontrolled for me
- upddwnldcfg.exe will need to run in the name of system account (it stores credentials under HKCU so far I know it will be a per user based setting)
--> what confuses me, the catalog synch works which should use the same configured proxy and account(?), only ADR does not work. shouldn't they both use the same process for sending account auth info?

Safari, Proxy Authentication, and Certificate Authorities ( for https )

A recent update to Safari has caused it to not work with our proxy authentication. It will not provide authentication details when looking up SSL certificate authorities, causing certificate errors on all https:// websites. All other traffic (http, https if certificate is bypassed, plugins, etc.) seem to work just fine. Is anyone else having this problem? If so, is there a fix?
It occurs on Mac and PC. I am using SquidGuard with NTLM authentication. All other browsers on our system (IE x.x, FireFox, Chrome, Opera ) don't have this issue.

I have the same problem and it's frustrating as can be.
What happens to me is that When I bring my laptop to work, and put it on the work network and launch Safari, Safari informs me that each of my plugins is invalid and then uninstalls them - I'm effectively not able to use any plug ins at work, and I have to go hunt them down when I get back home (for reference, The extensions are still physically in \users\me\Library\Safari\Extensions - so when I get home I can just double click on all of them)
I opened a case with apple and I encourage you to do the same. Perhaps if enough users complain they will find a gentler way to work with it.
They had me do a capture and after analyzing it said it was an issue with the work network and not being able to valdate the extensions.
It sounds like the same issue you have - as my work network uses a proxy as well.
The rep suggested that I use a different browser at work, but I'm so used to clicking safari, that I do it out of habit.
I really like Safari, and hope they get it fixed - Safari may not get respect in the windows world, but it's really a great browser - especially on a laptop where screen real estate is limited (where I often hit command-shift-\ to hide the address bar to see more of the page)

Can't get the proxy authentication work over SSL from weblogic 8.1

I'm trying to make a HTTPS connection through proxy server, and I get a 407 proxy authentication exception. I can succesfully connect from a stand-alone program, but I can't do it from a web application deployed on weblogic 8.1.
I implemented weblogic.common.ProxyAuthenticator, and here's my implementation methods-
public void init(String host, int port, String auth,
String loginPrompt) {
public String[] getLoginAndPassword() {
String[] login = new String[2];
login[0] = "test";
login[1] = "test123";
return login;
And, in my code where I make the connection, I'm setting the following-
System.setProperty(
"weblogic.net.proxyAuthenticatorClassName",
"test.client.MyProxyAuthenticator");
Can anyone help, what the problem could be? I provided dummy implementation for init() method and I'm not sure what to provide there.
Thanks in advance<pre></pre>

I moved the system property setting into startWeblogic.sh (using -D...) and it works.

Calling external web service - Proxy Authentication error

Using Developer 10.1.3.3 and following OTN example http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/forms/htdocs/10gr2/howto/webservicefromforms/ws_10_1_3_from_forms.html.
I have followed the above example and am trying to test the SendServiceSoapClient.java in JDeveloper. The class compiles ok but when I run it I receive the following error in the log window :
HTTP transport error: javax.xml.soap.SOAPException: java.security.PrivilegedActionException: javax.xml.soap.SOAPException: Bad response: 407 Proxy Authentication Required
As I was able to create the proxy with no problems, the proxy settings in Tools->Preferences are valid. I don't understand at what point it is failing as I am able to access the wsdl in the example from JDeveloper. I have checked the system settings for the proxy (username/pwd/host etc) at run time and they are as expected.
Can anyone make any suggestions? I have had my user details checked on our proxy server and it is not blocked from performing any actions. Is the message indicating I am being blocked from accessing the service from the suppliers end?

I have a solution for the problem I encountered.
My collegues who look after the proxy server and network first tried to bypass authentication for the web site www.esendex.com (where the service resides). The same error occurred when trying to call the service.
They then set up a route on the network to send the request straight to www.esendex.com and a rule on the firewall to allow the request 'out'. This has done the trick and the request passes through!
Unfortunately, I am not much clearer as to why our proxy server is configured to block this message type and how come it can't be changed! Hey ho, I have a solution for now!

Webservice Proxy authentication

Hi,
My system is behind a firewall... and am tryin to access google webservice.. I went to services -> Applications.-> and set the proxy host and port .
For proxy basic authentication i had entered the password..
For username i gave domainname\username..I restarted the server after this ,!
I am getting this error
Error : nullcom.sap.engine.services.webservices.jaxm.soap.accessor.NestedSOAPException: Problem in server response: [Proxy authentication required].
(Hey ppl .. any suggestions ! )
Regards
Bharathwaj

Hello,
because you say that your Account is domainname\username I think that the Proxy is a Microsoft ISA Server. So I also think that the server uses NTLM authentication. I think you should ask the ISA Administrator to provide unrestricted Access to the Internet for the IP of the Portal server without authentication.

ABAP client Proxy authentication required

Hallo, my problem is about ABAP client Proxy authentication.
Scenario:
Our Dev. BW MWDCLNT600 queries forward a (RetailPro) database (JDBC Receiver C.Channel), by Dev. XI , in order to "drive" data extraction (realized, backward, from RetailPro to BW).
Forward communication from BW uses a call on ABAP Client Proxy technology (I mean, a BW class implements an XI outbound Message Interface).
Problem:
Something changed, we don't know what or where, and since last week everytime you execute the report (F8) you are prompted for an authentication popup.
Official manual guide is: (ABAP Proxy Generation)
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/ba/f21a403233dd5fe10000000a155106/frameset.htm
in which you have to manage the 2 properties for credential supplying:
com.sap.aii.applicationsystem.serviceuser.name
com.sap.aii.applicationsystem.serviceuser.pwd
in order to "drive" authentication to Integration Engine.
In our scenario, ABAP report ZRTP_FLOW_CONTROL drives data extraction query, by a call to execute method
of class: ZCO_MI_FLOW_CONTROL_OB
which implements Outbound MI: MI_Flow_Control_OB (...all in SPROXY).
In SXMB_ADM, XI IEngine URL is correct...
In Exchange Profile, the 2 properties (see above) are correctly maintained (user: XIAPPLUSER, and password is OK)
Any suggestion?
Thanks all in advance!
Gianluca

Hi
I would like to suggest you to change the password in http destination (sm59) configured to comunicate with XI and put another one using UPPER case only. Another thing to check is tx SLDAPICUST. There is a problem in this transaction (I think it is a problem, maybe it's a feature , you need to use password with UPPER there to, and you need to double save the data there (change something, click save, change another thing, click save, and will work, otherwise not). Check tx SLDCHECK to see if connection with SLD and Integration Directory are ok.
Regards.
