Proxy server and uri rewrite

We're trying to set up some internet reports, which go through a proxy server (Novell iChain). We want to have the external calls use a particular cgicmd.dat entry on our ReportServer.
So
https://dnrx.wisconsin.gov/ldesrep?other_stuff
would turn into an internal app server call like
http://server/reports/rwservlet?cmdkey=ldesexternal&other_stuff
iChain won't do that. It can't work with the queryString portion of the call.
Apache will easily rewrite the incoming uri and queryString into the right form, but mod_rewrite seems to fire too late, so it interprets the /reports/rwservlet as a directory, not a program to be executed.
(I could probably call one Apache server and have it use mod_rewrite to send the rewritten call to another server, but that seems pretty kludgey).
Anyway, I'm looking for a good way to call a report through our proxy server and allow external access to only a limited set of reports on the server.
Any suggestions?

Is there a way to enter proxy information in the ftp:// string I am using?
I can get the calendars no problem. I know there is an HTTP proxy but ICal seems to be able to get through this fine?
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
THANKS!

We had issues when we first published our calendars at work too. I am not certain that this will help, but you can try it. What we did was go to the Network Preference Pane and add the IP address of the Cal server to the list of IP's that bypass the proxy server. After that we had no issues viewing or updating our calendars. I don't know exactly how your network is setup, but it may be worth a shot.

  • Microsoft outlook 2010 not working after installing proxy server and ForeFront TMG firewall

    I am trying to have Outlook 2010 work though proxy server recently installed on internal network, I have configured IE to use the proxy settings, but I cannot find the
    same with Outlook 2010, I want to clarify that we use Outlook 2010 to connect to internet email and we installed ForeFront TMG firewall on the proxy server and as a result of that we changed the IP settings and after that Outlook stopped sending and receiving
    mails and gives error: “receiving reported error (0x800408fc): 'The Server name you entered cannot be found (it might be down temporarily).”

    Hi,
    Are you using Exchange account? If you are changing your Exchange account to use a proxy server, I suggest we can create new profile and automatically re-configuring your account with autodiscover service to have a try:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/829918
    If the account can’t be configured automatically, please manually configure the account and change the settings for procy server:
    1. In the Account Settings dialog box, click the
    Email tab, click to select the Exchange account, and then click
    Change.
    2. Click More Settings. On the Connections tab, click
    Exchange Proxy Settings.
    3. In Connection settings, type the proxy server FQDN under Use this URL to connect to my proxy server for Exchange, click OK to have a try, and then click
    OK to save all settings.
    4. Restart Outlook.

  • What is a Proxy server and how is it disabled?

    I'm having problems, and from reading these discussions, I suspect I have to disable my proxy server.
    1) Before the most recent OS upgrade, I was able to access iTunes Store only from my home ISP (Wildblue satellite), or if away from home, only when plugged into an ethernet wire. When I'm away from home, I can never access iTunes Store from wireless Airport connection -- no matter what hot-spot I'm at.
    2) After the most recent OS upgrade, I have the same problems, except I can't even get on iTunes Store from home. iTunes program bombs as soon as I log into the store.
    The solution suggested is to disable my proxy server. (System Preferences -> Networks -> Advanced -> Proxies)
    But I have no "disable button" here. I have a choice of "Using a PAC file" or "Manual". If i change it to "Manual", it defaults back to "Using a PAC File". and it says "PAC File URL: http://wpad.wildblue.com/wpad.dat". I can change the URL but I wouldn't have a clue what to change it to.
    There is also a checkbox: "Use Passive FTP Mode (PASV)" and it is checked. Should I uncheck this?
    Do satellite connections, like my Wildblue ISP, require a proxy server?
    Any help meandering through this dark maze of computer mumbo-jumbo is greatly appreciated. I just want to download things from iTunes again.

    By default there is no proxy server activated in your network preferences so you must have at some point needed one or otherwise you would not have set it up.
    The simple solution is to create a new network location for you to use when your out and about.
    system preferences-->network-->location-->edit locations...
    click the plus sign
    title it with a name of your choosing, click done.
    Then apply
    This new location should have a blank set of network preferences.

  • 10gAS, proxy server and client ip address

    Hello,
    We recently deployed an application in a 10G application server, running behind an apache reverse proxy server.
    Our developers want to get the client ip addresses, which the proxy server passes in the the header x-forwarded-for. They're currently using getRemoteAddr to get the ip address of the system making the request, which is always going to be the proxy server.
    If using webcache, it looks like it's possible to toggle webcacheip on in the httpd.conf, which modifies the return value of getRemoteAddr appropriately. Is there a way to modify the application server to pull the ip address out of the x-forwarded-for header instead of the clientip header and return it via getRemoteAddr?
    Should I just have the developers pulling from that x-forwarded-for header value instead?

    I've gotten a few emails on this, what I did was this:
    On the front end apache reverse proxy, I added these lines:
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteCond %{REMOTE_ADDR} ^(.*)
    RewriteRule ^.* - [env=MY_REMOTE_ADDR:%1]
    RequestHeader set ClientIP "%{MY_REMOTE_ADDR}e
    It's been a while, but I recall having to do some extra work to be able to write this value into a header, I couldn't do it directly, so I did the above four lines instead.
    And then set UseWebCacheIp On on the application server httpd.conf.

  • Proxy server and or redirction:  general question

    i would like to setup my network so that all user that see it will have to login and then get access to the internet. i don't know where to start.
    on a small scale, using my wireless router, my mac, and the addressed passed out by the router, what do i need? or what do i need to configure?
    do i need:
    a proxy server? or some kind of configuation on DNS/BIND? kerberos? radius? or just macos x server?
    thanks everyone,

    Yes, you could use DPS to balance load to both masters. But now you have the same issue where if DPS dies, you lose access. So you could have two DPS behind a hardware load balancer. The admin guide explains how to set all this up.
    DS 5.2 and DSEE 6.3.1 are ldap v3 compliant. So if you do go with the DPS route, you can use DPS 5.2 or DPS 6.3.1

  • I upgraded to 8.0 and browser says its configured for proxy server and will not load pages. I dont run through a proxy

    I have had firefox since this computer was new and never had an issue. when I was prompted to update to 8.0 I thought nothing of it... but since it updated I get the error screen with: '''The proxy server is refusing connections'''
    Firefox is configured to use a proxy server that is refusing connections.
    Check the proxy settings to make sure that they are correct.
    Contact your network administrator to make sure the proxy server is

    Check the connection settings.

  • Anytime i try and eprint from my ipad the printer says i need a proxy server and code?

    Bought new Photosmart 6510e all in one. Set up went well including wireless internet setup. When I try to use my ipad and send document to print the printer says I need a "Proxy server name and code" I don't know what this means or how to find this server?
    What can I do to get this going?The computer I have is an Acer with Windows Vista.   

    Hello Manny12,
    I would start but suggesting you power cycle the printer. You can do this by following these steps:
    While the printer is still on, unplug the power cord from the printer, leave it unplugged for 30 seconds, then reconnect the power cord to the printer. Once plugged back in the printer should power on automatically.
    You also may try restoring the network defaults and re-connecting your printer back to your wireless network. If you are still experiencing issues you may also want to disable and re-enable Web Services.
    If you have any further issues or questions you can reply to this post and I will try to assist you.
    If I have solved your issue, please feel free to provide kudos and make sure you mark this thread as solution provided!

  • Server Name VS Outlook Anywhere Proxy Server and the behaviour I should expect when using SAN certificates...

    (I'll upload screen captures if needed once my account gets verified)
    I have a basic (as in freshly installed single exchange server 2010 SP3) Exchange Server installation. I've setup Outlook Anywhere. I've also setup a SAN (SubjectAltName) certificate.
    My setup:
    ex01.eci.XXXX.XX = is the server name and also the CN of my SAN certificate
    mail.eci.XXXX.XX = an A record I've setup to access my exchange server. It is also a subjectAltName in my SAN certificate
    When setting up Outlook, I enter the server name and specify the Outlook Anywhere proxy server in the Outlook Anywhere section. This works fine and I connect to my exchange server using RPC over HTTPS.
    Now, I was under the impression that specifying SANs in the certificate would allow me to enter the SAN alt name (mail.eci.XXXX.XX) in the field reserved for the Server Name, in Outlook..
    But it does not work. The proxy will give me an error each time, like that:
    HTTP    544    RPC_IN_DATA /rpc/rpcproxy.dll?mail.eci.XXXX.XX:6002 HTTP/1.1 , NTLMSSP_NEGOTIATE
    HTTP    635    HTTP/1.1 401 Unauthorized , NTLMSSP_CHALLENGE (text/html)
    HTTP    123    HTTP/1.0 503 RPC Error: 6ba
    My question is: is this the behaviour I should expect? Or should I be able to specify the SAN alt name in the Server Name in Outlook?
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    Firstly, I’d like to explain, the server name tab should be filled with your mailbox server name in the process of configuring Exchange 2010 account.
    And the Outlook Anywhere proxy server is configured at the server side and cannot be randomly defined at the client side. To check it, we can run: get-outlookanywhere |fl externalhostname
    Thus, it’s an expected behavior that we would get error if we randomly enter name in the server name tab when we configure an account. If I misunderstand your meaning, please feel free to let me know.
    Additionally, Autodiscover service can help us automatically complete the configuration of the Outlook account. And how about the result if you use the Autodiscover to automatically configure the account?
    If you have any question, please feel free to let me know.
    Thanks,

  • Can i setup a secure reverse proxy using sun one web proxy server and windows 2000?

    I've tried this on IPlanet Proxy 3.6 and, after reading the documentation, realized that SSL is not supported on the Windows platform. So I'm asking if it is supported using Sun One Web Proxy Server

    Hi,
    Yes, What you say is right.
    "The NT and Windows 2000 versions of iPlanet Web Proxy Server 3.6 do not support SSL".
    Sun One Web Proxy Server is as same as iPlanet webproxy server.
    May be in future relase of proxy server SSL will be supported in Win2000.

    Hi,
    Domain relaxing will not work in this setting, ref. RFC 2109 http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2109.txt
    What you need to do is to create a DNS alias for the portal on domain [something].[company].com. Then create a portal component which returns the MYSAPSSO2 cookie and create an URL iView for it with the DNS alias hostname and add it to the default framework page. In this way, persons logging in will get the MYSAPSSO2 cookie for both domains [sap subdomain].[network domain].local and [network domain].[company].com

  • Proxy Server and single sign on (SSO)

    We are currently running Portal 7.  I've enabled single sign on via logon tickets from portal to our backend ECC 6.0 and CRM 5.0 systems and its working fine.  For demoing to clients we've employed the Apache webserver for reverse proxy.  This reverse proxy server is located in the DMZ, on a domain of its on.  I can access the portal fine through the reverse proxy but now the single sign on to our backend ECC and CRM systems doesn't work.  I know the issue lies with the difference in the domain.
    Has anyone come accross an issue such as this and can lend me some help?

  • Proxy server and Publishing ICal Calendars

    I am using Ical Calendar publishing via a "Private Server" The way I have to set it up is using a string like ftp://domainname.com/path-to-folder/file. Then I have my user and password in the login area for the protected folder on this server.
    This works GREAT, however, I noticed when I'm at work and work has a proxy server for FTP I cannot connect to my domain and update - publish to my private server doesn't happen.
    Would anyone know how to make ICal use a proxy? Having the proxy in the Network Prefs under FTP and the box checked does not work. Both passive and unpassive does not make a difference.
    Is there a way to enter proxy information in the ftp:// string I am using?

  • Proxy server and Kerberos

    Dear all,
    Does anyone know if Mac OS X's proxy authentication is able to use Kerberos?
    Thanks,
    David Lee

    Ok thanks,
    I didn't think I was going to get the proxy to single sign on.
    This 'added extras' SMB stuff is a bit of a tangent to the original question and somewhat confusing.
    Just in case anyone stumbles across this:
    - A Mac OS X client can connect to an SMB/CIFS share with kerberos SSO.
    - The SMB/CIFS Share can be on Windows Server or Mac OS X Server but the Mac OS X Server can require extra configuration. Windows ought to work out of the box. Even following the Small Bus Server wizards you will get this working.
    Anyway, back to the original question.
    I agree that a hack is not ideal but I wonder if there is any reputable middleware that can handle this. Something like Authoxy where I can configure the middleware to SSO and the configure the mac os proxy settings to talk to the middleware.
    Any ideas anyone?
    Thanks,
    David Lee
