Hello all,
It's my first time posting to this list and I am not subscribed
so please CC me on any replies.
I'm having difficulty with the proxy settings in Windows
version of svn (I'm using the WANdisco compiled version). It seems as though
no matter what I put in the appdata\roaming\subversion\servers file the
settings are ignored and the svn is defaulting to the windows control panel
settings. This would be fine but we utilize a proxy.pac autoconfigure and
require proxy authentication. Between those two settings for whatever reason
svn seems to be unable to deal with the proxy's request for authentication.
I've tcpdumped the connection information from the proxy itself and it looks
like svn just isn't answering.
The basic gist of the stream goes like this:
Source Dest Protocol
Length Message
clientIP proxyIP HTTP 121
CONNECT www.svnrepository.tld:443 HTTP/1.1
proxyIP clientIP HTTP 236
HTTP/1.1 407 authenticationrequired (text/html)
clientIP proxyIP HTTP 217
CONNECT www.svnrepository.tld:443 HTTP/1.1 ,
NTLMSSP_NEGOTIATE
proxyIP clientIP HTTP 252
HTTP/1.1 407 authenticationrequired , NTLMSSP_CHALLENGE
(text/html)
And then silence. The app correctly interprets the first 407 and tries
connecting again but this time with an NTLMSSP_NEGOTIATE but when the proxy
comes back with a CHALLENGE svn never responds with credentials. I worked with
my proxy vendor and we tried to find ways around it but short of turning off
authentication they are chalking it up to a bug in the HTTP client
implementation. Any help would be much appreciated.
