ION proxy login problem
Feb 16th
a few days ago ION (WiFi provider in Manipal University) started an ISA based proxy using NTLM authentication, which according to them was a client install!!! some people were facing problem with it, like their browsers were asking for authentication (login) again and again, and repositories were not working on Linux.
So here is a simple screencast with solution for this problem it works great in Linux (esp. Fedora) i have also included configuring yum here, if someone wants to use apt-get (debian/ubuntu) they can do
export http_proxy=http://127.0.0.1:5865
Ok coming to the main point, go and download http://sourceforge.net/projects/ntlmaps/ and then watch the video here
People on windows can install python from here and then follow the steps
ION proxy problem solved
Note:- If You face any problem please post back here….
PS:- every thing in Text form coming soon… (i am lazy)
Using YUM with a proxy Fedora
Sep 27th
Finally i got a chance to use the awesome LAN at the college campus and it was a very good time to update the packages, but there was a problem it had a proxy, so i typed man yum and was pointed at man yum.conf and there it was a simple solution, all the you need to do is just edit the yum.conf file as root
type
su
enter your root password now type
nano /etc/yum.conf
here add a line
proxy = http://address:port
replace the above code with the address you need like 172.16.19.10 and port 80 in my case and all will work just fine
Enjoy!!!
