get RSS from behind firewall/proxy ?

TMN
Hi

I am trying to get fetch rss from news sites from behind our corporate
proxy/firewall but no php function has
worked - I have tried curl etc but simply get no response. These
scripts work fine at home so I have to believe it is due to our
restrictive network - any ideas ???

Thanks

You need to talk to your sysadmin and find out what's required for proxy
authentication .


Thanks - but how does my browser do it - all it knows is the proxy
address and my credentials ?

Tim,

There could be several ways, depending on your setup. For instance, you
might send a plain text userid/password. You could have an SSL
negotiated userid/password. You could have a client certificate... The
list goes on.

You really need to be talking to your sysadmin!

I'm trying to use cpanp behind a firewall and I'm not having any luck. However, cpan works fine with my proxy configs (I've set http_proxy and ftp_proxy in my shell environment). I've tried just host:port and http://host:port with no luck. Has anyone run into this problem? Thanks, Brian
