Proxy Username and Password

Hello.
I am trying to connect to my work network/Internet via Safari (as well as Software update, mail, ichat...anything that uses the network connections).
I keep getting the same error, over and over again. The User name and password for the proxy are incorrect. But I know that it is...because Firefox Connects just fine. I can also see the shared drives, which require the same set of credentials. I have checked all the Network Connection settings like a million times. They are just the same as the Firefox. So it should work. I just upgraded from 10.5.8 to SNLP but the issue is still the same. Please help.
Is there a prefix or something in the user name the safari needs and FF doesn't?
Thanks
Andy

Use a mozilla.cfg file in the Firefox program folder to lock prefs or specify new (default) values.
Place a file local-settings.js in the defaults/pref folder where you also find the file channel-prefs.js to specify using mozilla.cfg.
pref("general.config.filename", "mozilla.cfg");
pref("general.config.obscure_value", 0); // use this to disable the byte-shift
See:
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locking_preferences
You can use these functions in mozilla.cfg:
defaultPref(); // set new default value
pref(); // set pref, but allow changes in current session
lockPref(); // lock pref, disallow changes

ray,
Sounds like a permission problem.

Safari ignoring proxy username and password

I have an iPad2 and an iPad1. If I enter a username and password in the proxy settings for our company WiFi network, the iPad1 works flawlessly, the iPad2, however, ignores the username and password, and prompts for it onscreen. If I enter the username and password in Safari, it only remembers it for that session.
I have tried in both iOS 4.3 and 4.3.1, no success.

Unfortunately the problem is still present after upgrade ios to 4.3.4 or 4.3.5 . Some ipad2 (and iphone4) ignoring proxy username and password.
Has anyone solved this problem about authentication proxy ?
Thanks.

Firefox any version Mac, has a bug were it does not see or ask for the proxy username and password. This happens if you use a virtual tagged interface.

Firefox any version Mac, has a bug were it does not see or ask for the proxy username and password. This happens if you use a virtual tagged interface. A recent network University policy change. The only way to fix this, is if you use a manual proxy configuration in Firefox. So all 100 + uni iMac's can only use Safari as I would need to do a profile push to all 300 students and I am unsure what file carries the proxy information.

Add Proxy Username and Password and also SOCKS proxy to Dreamweaver CC 2014.1

Hello
I am currently behind a network corporate proxy that requires a username and password to login.
Dreamweaver since CS4 has never supported any proxy including SOCKS that require a login; this is backwards and is supported by most other IDEs.
The Dreamweaver user interface only has fields for entering the FTP server login information. An example of a proxy server that Dreamweaver does not support is SOCKS.
SOURCE: http://helpx.adobe.com/dreamweaver/kb/troubleshoot-ftp-problems-dreamweaver-cs4.html
Please can you add the ability to have more complex proxy addins such as SOCKS. Filezilla has a range of proxy settings but due to the nature of it saving username and passwords in XML files and non-encrypted passwords we cannot use this.
I use the full Adobe CC and use a Mac on Yosemite
Regards

It's highly unlikely that CS4 will gain this feature since it is now 7 versions removed from the current one and no longer supported with updates. My advice is to find a secure, dedicated FTP app you can use.

Firefox keep asking for proxy moz-proxy username and password

Windows 7, latest firefox. When I go to certain websites (like amazon.com), it keeps asking me The proxy moz-proxy:... user name and password. Entered CORRECT username and password and doesn't work. Keep asking again and again until I click cancel. Quite for couple of minutes and then back again. Not all sites, some sites have no problem at all. Using system proxy.
Tried reset firefox and lots of config setting on the web, nothing works. Can someone help?!
Thanks.

Mac keeps saving the proxy username and password. How to disable this feature, so that safari will ask for it everytime that I connect?

The title speaks for itself. It's the school computer and I don't want it to save every student's username and password.

You can't disable it. I assume that you want to know which student is using the network at any given time. You would need a more advanced server-side solution for that, such as a captive portal.

When i open Firefox (in general), i dont mean sign into any email address, just to start using Firefox, i want to have always to sign in with my proxy account = username and password..how? thank you!

If you use extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) like Adblock Plus or NoScript or Flash Block that can block content then make sure that such extensions aren't blocking content.
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do not click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Safe+Mode
You can use one of these to start Firefox in Safe mode:
*On Windows, hold down the Shift key while starting Firefox with a double-click on the Firefox desktop shortcut
*On Mac, hold down the Options key while starting Firefox
*Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
If it works in Firefox Safe-mode then disable all extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one extension at a time until the problem reappears.
Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

In some pages I keep receiving this message: "The proxy moz-proxy://172.20.5.250:8080 is requesting a username and password. The site says: "moz-proxy://172.20.5.250:8080"".

In my company, I used FF for sometime now.
I had some problem in the beginning, but using the proxy IP and Domain\Username + Password I was able to navigate.
Ever since I tried FF4.x and FF5.x... I started to receive the following message:
The proxy moz-proxy://172.20.5.250:8080 is requesting a username and password. The site says: "moz-proxy://172.20.5.250:8080"
Even after inserting the Domain\Username and the Password I keep receiving the same error. In FF3.xx I was able to use the proxy.
Don't know what to do any more there are several pages that have this problem.
http://pplware.sapo.pt/
http://www.facebook.com
http://www.netbooklive.com/
http://daxspeculator.blogspot.com/
Some... don't have any problem:
http://batracer.com
http://www.youtube.com
Even when I try to see the extensions I get this error. This is so weird!!!
For now... I have switched to Chrome, every new version of FF that is released I try it to see if the problem is gone. But, with no luck until now! :(

I did have this problem with proxy moz-proxy prompt for username and password. In my case it was for websites hosted not on the internet but on the local corporate intranet. I solved my problem by doing the following action:
Tools -> Options -> Advanced -> Network -> Settings: add the local website to the "No Proxy For:" field.
I hope this will help some of you out there that have manually configured their proxy settings. Also a tip if you need to turn on and off proxy settings I recommend using "Quick Proxy" add-on.

Can't get username and password into client proxy

Hello all,
I am creating a client proxy using class xem_measurementImport (the doMeasurementImport method). I call this from an ABAP program, and it pushes measurement data into the EC (Environmental Compliance) system, which runs in Java. Everything has been running well, except for one thing. When I run the program in the foreground, it prompts me for a username and password, and when I run it in the background (it will be run that way in production), it gets a SOAP/authentication fails error message from the method, since username & password could not be supplied. I tried to recreate my client proxy, but when it is created, the wizard does not prompt me for my name & password, which it should do, so that it can supply it to the calling program via the logical port. Is this a configuration issue that Basis needs to address? Thanks for any help you can give.

please tell me.

gaurav agrawalNo. If the "client" is installing the DB (and, I assume, administrating it, I.E. removing the large security holes that exist in the default installation), then why don't you simply ask the "client" for this info a dialog?
Otherwise, you should be providing a script in your installation package that modifies the DB to your needs, and instruct the "client" to install a "default" root password until after the script has run, and then to change the "root" password again. A Java application should definately not be worried about this stuff.

JDev WS proxy not sending username and password

Hi all, I've created a short web service which requires username authentication and testing it on the browser, the web service works fine.
I then tried to create a web proxy (which is the new term for Web Service Stub in JDeveloper Studio Edition 10.1.3.0.4 right?) which calls this web service with username authentication.
In the stub code, I added the following lines:
 public static void main(String[] args) {
 try {
 com.maxwell.secure.CreditServiceSoapHttpPortClient myPort = new com.maxwell.secure.CreditServiceSoapHttpPortClient();
 System.out.println("calling " + myPort.getEndpoint());
 // Add your own code here
 myPort.setUsername("tester");
 myPort.setPassword("***");
 myPort.getDetails("tester");
 } catch (Exception ex) {
 ex.printStackTrace();
 }where setUsername and setPassword are auto-generated by JDev.
However, I still get the error:
 javax.xml.rpc.soap.SOAPFaultException: policy requires authentication tokenand when I turn on the HTTP analyser, I noticed that the stub didn't send the username and password along in its SOAP request

Hi,
I can get username/pwd working in 2 ways.
First option
1. On the service, do not generate any of the security settings (ie do not use the Secure Web Service option)
2. Deploy to OC4J
3. Go in to security at application level and add your user
4. Generate proxy (yes, the new name!)
5. add the myPort.setUsername and setPassword code to your PortClient main method
6. run proxy
Second Option
1. On the service, use the Secure Web Service wizard - check the Authenticate using Text Password but uncheck Integrity and Confidentiality Options (signing and encryption)
2. Deploy to OC4J and add user as above
3. Generate proxy
4. Secure Proxy - check Use Username to Authenticate
5. Uncheck Inbound and Outbound Integrity and Encrypt/Decrypt
6. Add setUsername and setPassword as above
7. Run
With both of these I was able to call services. If you still have any problems, let me know and we'll try again

Proxy Server asking for username and password almost 6 times for every page I load, but the same doesn't happen with other browsers like chrome

The same question keeps popping up again and again "The proxy moz-proxy://proxy.iitm.ac.in:3128 is requesting a username and password. The site says: "moz-proxy://proxy.iitm.ac.in:3128""
Even after i give the right details, it asks me like 5 more times before it completely loads the page. Some times it happens only 2 times.
With other browsers like chrome, it asks only in the beginning. it doesn't occur after that.
This started occurring only recently. i upgraded to firefox 9.0 and it functioned properly for more than 12 hours before it started occuring. i tried downgrading back to 8.0.1 but the problem still continued.

i'm afraid i need to use proxy settings to connect to internet. The settings are all fine because it used to work properly all this time. i specify the proxy address and the port, which is correct, i am very confident. it is so because the page actually loads on firefox, but not before it asks for my user name and password for it a lot of times, and for every page. for other browsers, it asks only in the beginning, that is, when i start the browser.
i've put three pics here. under the first two settings, the third image showing the user name and password thingy popping up. this happens a lot of times for every page.

Using Proxy on Lion - Continually being prompted for username and password

I am looking at Lion in my studio setup at the moment and so far only a few things I am not happy with. One of these though is really annoying and in it's present form would stop me from using it in production.
I have setup the proxies in the Network tab as they are in 10.6.8 but I continually get prompted for my username and password. Not an issue if it was my machine and I would be using at home for instance but in the studio no. It could be anyone using the machine and some people do not have proxy access.
I do not want to store in the general network settings as a default username for the machine as there is not one. Is there a way of seeing what is trying to look out to the internet? Would little Snitch help here?
Dialogue box I would like to get rid of it the red ! one below, as the only way to avoid this is by typing in a user name and password into the Network Preferences settings
I do not mind this one below as it is usually only appears when you require it and not randomly during the day.

I have installed Little Snitch and left running for the day.
So far helpd is the main culprit, so is there a way of disabling this other than using little snitch?
If only Little Snitch, has anyone deployed to around 25 Macs so that the user doesn't really notice?

Firefox with proxy configured keeps on asking for username and password

This was asked a while ago, but no solution every posted.
I use FF at work with a proxy. When I upgraded to FF28, an "old" problem came back - FF constantly pops up a window saying the Proxy is asking for a username and password. I did nit have this problem with the previous version of FF. It doesn't seem to remember the password, and will ask several times for the same page. Has gotten so disruptive I've moved over to Chrome for now.
Thoughts on why this issue started again with FF28? Thoughts on how I can get it to stop and make the browser usable again?

How to set username and password when using Proxy class for SOCKS5?

Hi all,
I use the proxy class for SOCKS5, so need to set username and password, I don't find where can I set the value. whether the API support it.
Thanks in advance!

System.getProperties().put("proxySet", "true");That does nothing. Remove.
System.getProperties().put("proxyHost", getProxyHost());
System.getProperties().put("proxyPort", getProxyPort());You should be setting socks.proxyHost and socks.proxyPort here.
System.setProperty("java.net.socks.username", getSOCKSUsername());
System.setProperty("java.net.socks.password", getSOCKSPassword());
Authenticator.setDefault(new ProxyAuth(getSOCKSUsername(), getSOCKSPassword()));You either need the first two lines or the third, not both. See the last link posted above.
1. After I set the value, I connect internet by proxy, how the proxy server knows the values?Because Java tells it during the SOCKS handshake.
2. In my app, I just set the values in the system properties, then JVM does remaining work? Remaining work is not concerned?Should be OK unless you have to connect to a different SOCKS proxy from the same JVM, but that kind of thing is problematic anyway due to the curious Authenticator design which is set globally, not per connection as you might expect.
