[Wtr-general] Proxy server login

[Cain, Mark]

In IE there are several authentication settings.  Open IE >> Tools >>
Internet Options and click the security tab.  Click the custom levels
button and scroll down until you reach the User Authentication area.
Most applications authenticate to the currently logged in user.
Selecting that option should get rid of the proxy box.  However, you
should choose the appropriate one for your target user group.

 

Hope this helps,

 

--Mark

I still haven't gotten WATIR to launch the browser in a way that it
displays the proxy login when required.  Any ideas?

 

Thanks,

 

Ben

	I am trying to use WATIR through a proxy server.  

	The browser is configured to automatically detect proxy settings
and to use a configuration script. 

	When manually browsing in IE, the browser displays a proxy login
dialog when I attempt to access a site that is outside our network.
This proxy login dialog may show up when the browser is opened, or it
may show up later.

	When I start IE via WATIR, no proxy login dialog is displayed
and IE displays the "Cannot find server" error page. 

	How can I get WATIR to start IE so that it will detect the need
to login to the proxy server, and how do I get it to log into the proxy
server?

	Thank you, 

	Ben
