(Keywords: regression)

We recently starting using an 'autenticating' proxy. Mozilla ran fine doing 'proxy.maricopa.gov' 8080 before we switched. Now if i try to enter 'domain\username:password@proxy.maricopa.gov' 8080, I can access nothing. However if I just leave it as 'proxy.maricopa.gov' every time I go to a site it asks me for user name and password, if I enter itatc\username and password it works fine and I can check 'remember these' values, but EVERY new site I hit asks for this. On Linux same thing happens. On debian for example to get debian packages i set http_proxy=http://itatc\\username:password@proxy.maricopa.gov:8080' and it seems to work fine. I think there is just a problem between the front end and the backend here.

-> badami for investigation (perhaps this is partially related to the recent proxy auth regression)
This should be fixed as a result of the recent fixes to bug 127671. Can u please verify using any nightly build from tomorrow onwards ?
Going to mark this as fixed. Please reopen if it happens again on nightly builds after today.

actually, if the proxy server requires NT-based LAN manager authentication, then this is a real bug. If that's the case, then this bug is a dupe of the other "support NTLM" bug.
I can not get the nightly build as the proxy authentication seems to fail for the installer as well. Perhaps as Mr. Fisher stated this is an NTLM support bug issue. I am going to reopen this in hopes that someone closes it and marks it a duuplicate so I can get the ID for the other bug to follow its progress. I looked for string 'proxy' and found nothing similar when originally submitting the bug so I apologize for any duplication.
