I got the idea to try Lynx, and I am not sure if this sequence is interesting but : % /usr/local/bin/proxy http://www.google.com http://jc:12345@proxy_server:3128 % echo $http_proxy http://jc:12345@proxy_server:3128 % lynx http://www.google.com Alerte! : Autorisation du mandataire requise - nouvelle tentative TR-Username for 'Squid proxy-caching web server' at proxy 'jc:123':jc Mot de passe : ***** Note that the first attempt fail. It seems to get the credential from http_proxy and there it fails. Secondly, it requests a manual input, but it keeps by default the password at it was read. And there, as you can see, the password was truncated ! It could be a bug in the display of Lynx, but it could also be the cause of this issue. Note that in my real password, there is no special character, just 6 alphanumeric characters. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
