cntlm is what you looking for |
| 20 |
http://cntlm.sourceforge.net/ |

| 22 |
It's available for linux and windows. Depending on your needs. |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
I'm using it for years and it's doing really well. It needs a little time to |
| 25 |
create a config file. But it's really powerful. It's even possible to provide |
| 26 |
your contractors a config file within your credentials. hint: see the -M |
| 27 |
option or just use it with interactive prompt (-I option). |
