Proximotron and NT authentication

[UNICRON]

If I am running Proximotron, I cannot authenticate on WINNT/2K server. I cannot connect to a website ect. (for the purpose of authoring/administering)

Need more details. *

When I use proximotron, and browse the net, everything is grand. When I stop at a website that I know has front page server extensions enebled, and I have an account, I might click "edit with FP", then FP gives me a login box. I enter my username and password, and I then edit my page. With proximitron running, my account info is not accepted.

If I attempt to connect to a website with Visual interdev (also uses front page server extensions to connect to websites) I get an error:

(if you see nothing, you may have used adshield to can my icon lol.)

Now this prog has nothing to do with IE (niether does FP) but I suppose the connection info in the IE options are not just for IE!

If I go to the internet options in IE and uncheck the "use proxy server for lan" then it works. I do not even have to close my browser. Now that I found out how to get around it, I am ok with this. I was originally worried I couldn't use Proimotron. I thought the "Bypass" button in proximotron might help but it does not. Perhaps there is an option somewhere I am missing. I did find a setting to block www authentication but it is not checked.

Do me a favor, do that again next time, whatever it is you do, and have the Proxo log window open. *Capture it all. *At one of those pages where it doesn't work b/c Proxo is install, replace "http://" with "dbug.." in the URL line and hit enter. *Capture that too. *Then, email them to me.

We are not in a browser here, there is nowhere to type that.

Log is on the way

[Zhen-Xjell]

Got the log.. will look at it today...

as to the URL, open another browser and if you know the url, instead of "http://" start it off with a "dbug..". *What happens?

[UNICRON]

I do not understand this debug thing. Can you give me a full example? I tried debug://www.example.com that didn't go anywhere.

The thing is, I can go to the site fine, just when I put my username and password into the login box for NTauthentcation, it acts like I gave it the wrong password when I certainly did not. This may have to do with the fact that I am on cable so I use the LAN for net access not dial-up. w2k treats these different types of connections quite differently.

[Zhen-Xjell]

try this:

dbug..www.yahoo.com

you see what happens?

[UNICRON]

my browser heeps adding http:// in front of it so I get "this page cannot be displayed" How do I turn off the auto addition of the protocol?

[Zhen-Xjell]

Hmm... keeps adding the "http://" eh? *Which version of IE are you using?

BTW.. I checked the log you sent and didn't find anything noticeable.
