Hello I am a newbie to HTTP and writing an http client application. I need to authenticate to a server which is protected by basic authentication. But to connect to the original server I need to connect to a proxy which is also protected by basic authentication. What I need to do here is to send the base-64 encoded authentication header as part of the request. But since the this has to be passed at two levels, can I pass two values for the header at the same time? one for the proxy and the other for the actual server? Otherwise I will get the challenge back from one of these servers right? I also wanted to know how valid is this scenario. Thanks for any help, dw __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
