Details

(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.
-> Networking ?

-> 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.
