Hello, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
I'm looking for a simple HTTP+FTP proxy that supports upstream |
| 4 |
authentication. |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
The reason is that we (that is, my employer) have a server that requires |
| 7 |
Internet access for its setup, but for some reason* my employer does not |
| 8 |
want to give the contractors a login for the corporate proxy. |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
I'm planning of setting up a simple proxy to authenticate against the |
| 11 |
corporate proxy using one of my credentials, and have the contractor use |
| 12 |
this simple proxy instead of the corporate one. |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
I think Squid can do that... but is there a simpler solution? I truly don't |
| 15 |
need caching, inter-proxy coordination, or other exotic stuff. Just a way |
| 16 |
to allow other people to authenticate against the corporate proxy using my |
| 17 |
credentials, but without giving my credentials away. |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
(Of course the simple proxy will be installed on a totally separate system, |
| 20 |
one under my full control and nobody else's) |
| 21 |

Rgds, |
