Feature changed by: Christoph Thiel (cthiel1) Feature #305546, revision 7 Title: Support for NTLM authentication (proxy) in YaST and libzypp openSUSE-11.2: Evaluation Priority Requester: Desirable + Projectmanager: 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. Some odd people like to use NTLM proxies, I will never understand why. this will be a headache to do :-/ -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/305546
