Re: [evolution-patches] 66199, camel, proxy auth

[Not Zed <notzed ximian com>]

You could install apache2-worker and setup an authenticated proxy like I had to :)

e.g. put this in /etc/apache2/conf.d/proxy.conf:

LoadModule proxy_module /usr/lib/apache2-worker/mod_proxy.so
LoadModule proxy_connect_module /usr/lib/apache2-worker/mod_proxy_connect.so
LoadModule proxy_http_module /usr/lib/apache2-worker/mod_proxy_http.so

ProxyRequests On
ProxyVia On

<Proxy *>
Order deny,allow
Deny from all
Allow from localhost
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Restricted Files"
AuthUserFile /etc/apache2/htpasswd
Require valid-user
</Proxy>

And setup a password file/entry:
htpasswd2 -c /etc/apache2/htpasswd fejj

(re)start /etc/rc.d/apache2, then set the gnome proxy to localhost:80, etc.

But since i've already done it, it probably isn't worth it :)
