Proxy Authentication Support

All,
Just figured I'd share this workaround.
We've been trying to use 10.1.0.4's proxy authentication functionality with our ISA Proxy servers and it just doesn't work with ISA servers due to well...Microsoft's inability to conform to industry standards... :-/
Anyway, Came up with create and stable workaround. We stood up a copy of this:
http://ntlmaps.sourceforge.net/
Which is basically a NTLM Authentication - Proxy Forwarder. Extremely simple Python based daemon.
Figured this might save you some trouble if you're company forces NTLM Proxy based auth to get to the net and you're wondering how to hook OEM up to Metalink.

Actually, there's quite a bit more to it than that.
proxyHost= IP address of the proxy server
proxyPort= port number of the proxy server
proxyUser= User name for proxy server authorization
proxyPwd= password for proxy server authorization
proxyRealm= proxy server realm
proxyPropsEncrypted= flag indicating whether proxyUser and proxyPwd are encrypted values.
However, when configuring for proxy auth by specifying the realm user and pwd for the authentication user, it doesn't work with an Microsoft ISA Proxy despite the fact that both the ISA Proxy is configured for basic auth support and httpclient.jar supports basic auth as well.
It has "issues" in the negotiation phase. The issue's being worked with Oracle Development. Hence, the reason for my original post. Those who run into the problem will appreciate finding a solution in the search engine. :)

Is iPlanet Web Proxy Server support OpenLdap authentication ?

Do you know Is iPlanet Web Proxy Server support OpenLdap authentication ?

Hi
This as per the HTTP/1.1 RFC (RFC2616)
The Connection general-header field allows the sender to specify options that are desired for that particular connection and MUST NOT be communicated by proxies over further connections.
The Connection header has the following grammar:
Connection = "Connection" ":" 1#(connection-token)
connection-token = token
HTTP/1.1 proxies MUST parse the Connection header field before a message is forwarded and, for each connection-token in this field, remove any header field(s) from the message with the same name as the connection-token. Connection options are signaled by the presence of a connection-token in the Connection header field, not by any corresponding additional header field(s), since the additional header field may not be sent if there are no parameters associated with that connection option.
Read the following at
http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec8.html#sec8.1.3
and

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.

Administration of APEX in SQL Developer with Proxy Authentication impossibl

Hello!
We are using latest version of SQL Developer to administer APEX. We are connecting to the database with proxy authentication. The syntax is:
personal_user[apex_ws_owner]
e.g.: mdecker[apex_demo]
When trying to deploy APEX application I go to "Database Object" -> Application Express -> Application1 [100] -> right mouse click: "Deploy Application". Then I select the appropriate database identifier and next, I am presented with a screen showing import options. In second line, it says: "Parsing Schema: MDECKER".
This is wrong: it has to be Parsing Schema: APEX_DEMO. It seems that managing APEX with SQL Developer does not support Proxy Authentication.
Could you please confirm?
Is there a way to formally ask for this enhancement?
Best regards,
Martin
Update:
I found out that if I check the flag "Proxy Authentication" in the connect details and provide both passwords, the deploy application parsing schema is set to the correct APEX_DEMO account. However, we are using Proxy Authentication in order to avoid having to know the application password.
Edited by: mdecker on Jan 28, 2013 4:48 PM

There is a write-up about connecting to APEX here: <a href ="http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/html/sql_dev_integration.html" >SQL Dev Oracle APEX Integration</a>
You do need to have updated to Oracle APEX 3.0.1.

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.

ASA - cut through proxy authentication for RDP?

I know how to set this up on a router (dynamic access-list - lock and key)... But, I'm having trouble understanding how to setup OUTSIDE to INSIDE cut through proxy authentication for RDP.
OUTSIDE to INSIDE RDP is currently working.
I have 2 servers I want RDP open for..
[*]OUTSIDE 1.1.1.1 to INSIDE 10.10.70.100
[*]OUTSIDE 1.1.1.2 to INSIDE 10.10.50.200
What's required for OUTSIDE users to authenticate on the ASA before allowing port 3389 opens? I was hoping for is a way to SSH into this ASA, login with a special user, then have the ASA add a dynamic ACE on the OUTSISE interface to open 3389 for a designated time limit. Is this possible?
Here is my current config.

You're running ASA 8.2(5). In 8.4(2) Cisco added support for what they call Identity Firewall rules. That is, you can make access-lists entries specific to users (or object groups containing users).
There's an overview document on this posted here. It's a bit dated but I believe the only change is that Cisco is now preferring use of the more current Context Directory Agent (CDA) - a free VM they provide - vs. the deprecated AD agent (software service that runs on your DC).

Strange behaviour when using connection pooling with proxy authentication

All
I have developed an ASP.NET 1.1 Web application that uses ODP.NET 9.2.0.4 accessing Oracle Database 8i (which is to be upgraded to 10g in the coming months). I have enabled connection pooling and implemented proxy authentication.
I am observing a strange behaviour in the live environment. If two users (User 1 and User 2) are executing SQL statements at the same time (concurrent threads in IIS), the following is occurring:
* User 1 opens a new connection, executes a SELECT statement, and closes this connection. The audit log, which uses the USER function, shows User 1 executed this statement.
* User 2 opens the same connection (before it is released to the connection pool?), excutes an INSERT statement, and closes this connection. The audit log shows User 1, not User 2, executed this statement.
Is this a known issue when using connection pooling with proxy authentication? I appreciate your help.
Regards,
Chris

Hi Chris,
I tried to reproduce your complaint, but was unable to. I didnt use auditting however, just a series of "select user from dual" with proxy authentication. You might want to see if you can put together a small complete testcase for this and open a sr with support.
Cheers
Greg

Proxy authentication doesn't work with JSSE

Hello,
Seems like there is no common way to authenticate with proxy for HTTP and HTTPS.
Connecting to http://... - works fine, but https://... returns error message:
Unable to tunnel through 111.111.111.111:8080. Proxy returns "HTTP/1.0 407 Proxy Authentication Required"
(IP address is intentionally changed in the message above)
I'm using JSSE with VAJ JDK 1.2 and here is a Java code snippet that works well with HTTP connections:
Security.addProvider(new com.sun.net.ssl.internal.ssl.Provider());
System.setProperty("java.protocol.handler.pkgs",
"com.sun.net.ssl.internal.www.protocol");
System.setProperty("https.proxyHost", proxyHost);
System.setProperty("https.proxyPort", proxyPort);
System.setProperty("http.proxyHost", proxyHost);
System.setProperty("http.proxyPort", proxyPort);
try {
URL url = new URL("https://www.sun.com");
URLConnection connection = url.openConnection();
String authString = proxyUserID + ":" + proxyPasswd;
String encodedAuthString =
"Basic " + new sun.misc.BASE64Encoder().encode(authString.getBytes());
connection.setUseCaches(false);
connection.setRequestProperty("Proxy-authorization", encodedAuthString);
Listening to the network traffic helped me to understand that there is a difference between the way HTTP and HTTPS is handled. For some reason HTTPS ignores all the headers that I specify using setRequestProperty().
Here is example of request and responses sent by HTTPS handler:
Request:
CONNECT 198.175.98.32:443 HTTP/1.0
User-Agent: JSSE
Proxy response:
HTTP/1.0 407 Proxy Authentication Required
Date: Wed, 07 Nov 2001 22:04:11 GMT
Content-Length: 233
Content-Type: text/html
Server: NetCache (NetApp/5.1R2D4)
Proxy-Authenticate: basic realm="NETCACHE2"
Please note that there is no Proxy-authorization header in the request above.
Compare it with HTTPS request sent by Netscape browser:
Request to proxy:
CONNECT www.sun.com:443 HTTP/1.0
Proxy-authorization: Basic am0vbDphrGxHa22lLg==
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.76 [en] (Windows NT 5.0; U)
Response:
HTTP/1.0 200 Connection established
Proxy-Agent: NetCache NetApp/5.1R2D4
So, the question is:
What is the best way to pass "Proxy-authorization" header to proxy server??
Thanks in advance for your time.

Hi Guys,
Just like, i assume, all of you, i've had my battles with javas' handling of https comms from behind a firewall. I'm actually amazed at how something that is a simple combination of protocol and security should become so messy.
Luckily , i managed to get all my requirements met, but the sad thing is after all that hard work, i'm not much closer to understanding why the standard java sdk (im using 1.4) forces us to endure such painful tasks.
Really, Java is quite a mature language now, and one of its touted benefits is its applicability to web and internet technologies... so why the messy proxy code when dealing with ssl?
Anyway, i didn't really come here to b**tch, but rather to point you all to a handy library from apache - httpClient - http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/httpclient.
After implementing ssl proxy tunnelling and all the fun that goes with it, i found this tool, and subsequently deleted all that ugly code, and let http client deal with all that for me.
Its seriously simple, heres a snippet:
httpClient = new HttpClient();
httpClient.setTimeout(responseTimeoutMillies);
Protocol myHttps = new Protocol("https", new SSLContextBasedSocketFactory(sslContext), targetServerPort);
httpClient.getHostConfiguration().setHost(targetServerHost, targetServerPort, myHttps);
if (useProxy)
     httpClient.getHostConfiguration().setProxy(proxyHost, proxyPort);
        httpClient.getState().setProxyCredentials("my-proxy-realm", proxyHost, new UsernamePasswordCredentials(proxyUser, proxyPassword));
}This initialises the client, and after this, making http requests is simple:
String response = null;
PostMethod postMethod = new PostMethod("/secure/blah.jsp"); // A HTTP Post
postMethod.setRequestBody("Hello there"); // this is the data in the http post body
int responseCode = httpClient.executeMethod(postMethod);
if(responseCode == 200)
    response = postMethod.getResponseBody();...
As you can see, its alot less painful. It certainly makes me feel better, knowing i don't have to support/maintain the ugly proxy tunnelling code. Give it a shot on your next project.
Hope it helps.
Regards
Marcus Eaton

Invalid Response Code: (407) Proxy Authentication Required

Hi all,
I have created a EJB that will access an external webservice to receive data and will display it in a jsp. But when i call it, i get the folllowing error-
com.sap.engine.services.webservices.jaxrpc.exceptions.InvalidResponseCodeExcpetion: Invalid Response Code: (407) Proxy
Authentication Required (The ISA Server requires authorization to fulfill the request. Access to the Web Proxy is denied)
I have already set the proxy user name and password in visual admin under destinations and also under Web Services Container->Runtime->Settings. Still i get this error. I checked a couple of threads here, that answer to my problem, but none helped! Am i missing something?
Thanks in advance,
Swarna

Hi Swarna
What is the patch level that you are running on?
May be the "auth-scheme" element required by the HTTP specification is missing in the "Proxy-Authorization" HTTP header.
I think that the solution is there in the new support packages or the patch update.
Please check out the latest support packages and apply them.
This should solve your problem.

for oracle oci (or thick) driver, from the bea console?
Hi. You can do exactly that with a direct Oracle DataSource, but no middleware product
will be able to interact with them. We could wrap Oracle-specific objects, and make
methods like getProxyConnection(), but Oracle makes the contiinuing mistake of
providing these non-standard JDBC methods with no Interface to define them. This
means that you have to cast to a concrete Oracle class to use the methods, and
WebLogic classes cannot be Oracle classes. We can both be javax.sql.DataSource,
because that's an Interface...
You could contact support at BEA and ask for a feature to provide getProxyConnection
functionality, but your code would still have to look a little different, at least
in the cast.

IAS 9i, JAAS and Proxy Authentication

Hi
I'm trying to use proxy authentication for a web application hosted on IAS. The 'Oracle 9i Application Server Security guide' states that proxy authentication is supported using JDBC, but I can't find instructions on how to use this approach. Is this feature configurable, or it must be hand coded in the web application.
Ideally, I'd like to establish the lightweight session using the credentials used to perform a JAAS authentication.
I've seen an example for a similar situation linking JAAS authentication to VPDs setting up the application context for the database connection, but the example was tied to BC4J. I'd like to use a more general approach, for example to use this feature with BI Beans.
I think this is not an unusual setup, but I can't find clear instructions on how to make the pieces work together.
Fernando

Thanks,
Any additional recommendations are welcome. We plan to use forms and reports service with SSL.

Socks Proxy Authentication

I have working socks proxy with Java Mail 1.4.5 without user name/password but wish to support socks proxies that require user names and passwords.
I have tried using an authenticator on the Session.getInstance(Properties, Authenticator) object but I get an error saying incorrect user name/password on my socks proxy.
My sample code is below:
Properties properties = getProperties();
final String socksProxyUserName = "test";
final String socksProxyPassword = "test";
Authenticator authenticator = new Authenticator() {
     @Override
     protected PasswordAuthentication getPasswordAuthentication() {
          PasswordAuthentication passwordAuthentication = new PasswordAuthentication(socksProxyUserName, socksProxyPassword);
          return passwordAuthentication;
Session session = Session.getInstance(properties, authenticator);
My socks proxy is FreeProxy.
I am using this method for socks proxy support in java mail.
If your proxy server supports the SOCKS V4 or V5 protocol (http://www.socks.nec.com/aboutsocks.html, RFC1928) and allows anonymous connections, and you're using JDK 1.5 or newer and JavaMail 1.4.5 or newer, you can configure a SOCKS proxy on a per-session, per-protocol basis by setting the "mail.smtp.socks.host" property as described in the javadocs for the com.sun.mail.smtp package. Similar properties exist for the "imap" and "pop3" protocols.
Message in Proxy logfile is:
Fri 20 Jul 2012 09:37:59 : ACCESS : Instance:'socky' Protocol:'SOCKS-5-Proxy' Access:'Forbidden' Client IP:'10.45.16.21' User:'test/FPDOMAIN' Resource Type:'User Authentication' Resource:'Authentication: User/password invalid'
I have confirmed user name and password several times and tried extra ones just in case but no luck.
Does anybody have any ideas. THe fact that it tries to authenticate the login on my proxy server suggests I'm trying the correct method to connect to me but can someone confirm this for me?
This proxy has this user added as I set it up myself.

Proxy authentication for Internet

I have searched high and low for an answer to this and cant belive nokia havn't included it as part of the firmware.
At work on my laptop I connect via wireless to a access point that then passes my connection to a proxy server.
When I try and access the internet on my phone I get No Gateway Reply
Now my laptop requires I am authenticated on the network
(username, password, domain) before allowing me access to the web/email etc
How do I get these credentials on to my phone??NOKIA 5800 XM)
someone out there must know

I'm afraid you can't. S60 does not support proxy authentication.

Why do I keeping getting proxy authentication request when trying to read Gmail?

I am behind a Blue Coat proxy, whenever I try to hit gmail or google play, I get a pop-up that request user authentication (moz-proxy). I have seen a number of post on this and tried the fixes. Nothing seems to help. When I tried this: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/943488, Step three: network.automatic-ntlm-auth.allow-proxies – FALSE, I was block from hitting any webpage. I have tried opening is SAFE MODE, that did not work. Are there any other solutions?

"IE’ uses windows authentication, and authenticates with proxy server silently behind the scenes. Chrome uses IE’s settings in windows, for proxy settings. Hence the same behavior as IE. But Firefox, tries to do it on its own, that is why it tries to authenticate and find out if you have access to the site.
But, yeah, for your problem, the best way would be to ignore proxy for the site if you know they are already blocked."
