Title: Trouble with external proxy
Post by: sebastiaopburnay on November 24, 2010, 06:32:44 PM
Hi.

I'm running an sme-server 7.x on a VMware virtual machine under a 32bit windows 7.

The computer is connected to a LAN which has an internal web proxy with windows authentication
The proxy server takes the calls on port 8080 (I guess, but this is not the core issue).

Well, I can't figure out a way to bypass this proxy.
What I would like to do would be to store the external proxy's info in some kind of file so that my sme-server would have no problem accessing the web.

Thank you very much for this great forum.

With my best regards,
sebastiaopburnay

I think search is your friend... however read this (http://wiki.contribs.org/SME_Server:Documentation:FAQ#Proxy_Pass).

Thank you.

I used those commands:
Quote
db domains set proxypassdomain.com domain
db domains setprop proxypassdomain.com Nameservers internet
db domains setprop proxypassdomain.com ProxyPassTarget http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/
db domains setprop proxypassdomain.com TemplatePath ProxyPassVirtualHosts
signal-event domain-create proxypassdomain.com
Replacing proxypassdomain.com by the external proxy's DNS name and http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/ by that proxy's IP address.

Still, it doesn't work. And it makes sence, once I haven't inputed my username nor password in these commands.

There must be something else.

I'll keep searching, but if someone knows a solution to this issue, please reply.

With my best regards,
sebastiaopburnay

As I see it, you want to authenticate to a proxy server.
If I recall correctly, this was discussed in the forums or bugzilla a year or two ago, so start doing some serious searching.

This is something different to the wishes of OP. OP wants his server to authenticate at a upstream proxy server using the domain credentials.
