Feature changed by: Federico Lucifredi (flucifredi) Feature #305546, revision 5 Title: Support for NTLM authentication (proxy) in YaST and libzypp - openSUSE-11.2: New + openSUSE-11.2: Evaluation Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Katarina Machalkova (kmachalkova) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: YaST and libzypp should work in an environment with proxy server requiring NTLM authentication. The feature consists of two parts: 1) YaST proxy module has to provide UI to let user choose NTLM and write configuration file (/root/.curlrc) accordingly 2) libzypp media backend needs to be adapted to read and understand such configuration( that is, accept also --proxy-ntlm option instead of bare --proxy only) References: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=440296 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=412137 + Business case (Partner benefit): + openSUSE.org: Significant for adoption in mixed datacenters where the + proxy infrastruture is on MSFT assets. + Discussion: + #1: Federico Lucifredi (flucifredi) (2009-01-26 20:57:23) + Sadly, there is a realistic business case for this in mixed + datacenters.
