I've revealed the same problem when have tried to apply to proxy authentication in my programm. For my application I use RedHat Linux 9 (2.4.20), for compilation - gcc 3.2.2. Library installed from w3c-libwww-5.4.0-4.i386.rpm. In main function I do the next calls: ... HTProfile_newNoCacheClient(APP_NAME, APP_VERSION); ... HTProxy_add( "http", MY_PROXY ); HTNoProxy_add( "localhost", NULL, 0 ); HTAlert_deleteOpcode( HT_A_USER_PW ); HTAlert_add( PromptUsernameAndPassword, HT_A_USER_PW ); HTAlert_setInteractive( YES ); ... Then I apply to requested web resource. After that: HTEventList_loop(...); End of main function. So when I try to get some resource abroad proxy (www.hotmail.com e.g.) - application, after receiving "407: Proxy Authentication required", hunging up on call HTEventList_loop(...). When I apply to "http://localhost" (no proxy) - I receive from my local apache server authentication request. After inputing of authentication information I get html page and application ends. By other words - without proxy everything works fine. So what's wrong? Does anybody already revealed such a problem and know what to do? Thanx in advance. Sergey.
