Hi All, I have an Oracle Linux 6.3 uek 32 bit system. Installed netbeans 7.4 fails to authenticate to proxy server when correct password is given and simply re-prompts for user/password. Corporate proxy server here locks you out after 3 tries, so my network administrator is frowning on number of reset requests! See: Tools->Options->General.Use System Proxy Settings->Test connection Possibly related to bugs 136036, 82919 and 238665. Have tried remedies suggested there, proxy from other software such as Mozilla is working fine on this system via the system defined proxy. The password in use contains punctuation characters such as dot and underscore. I have tried netbeans-trunk-nightly-201312030002-linux with same result.

Hello, how does it work with 7.3? Did you try? Please attach IDE log (http://wiki.netbeans.org/FaqLogMessagesFile).

What form of authentication scheme does your proxy use? The reason for my question is that most network proxies tend to use a form of IMPLICIT authentication (e.g. like NTLMv2 or friends) and in this case there's nothing for you to configure in the IDE. In fact if you do input proxy username and password in the IDE then you are only making things worse because NetBeans will expect the proxy to require some form of EXCPLICIT authentication. Also see bug 245192 (which is an RFE).
