Topic: How to get Apache to use a webproxy?

[id04]

Hi,

I have the problem to make ajax requests to a different webserver. To do so, I want to use mod_proxy, but since my developer machine is sitting behind a squid-webproxy(with basic authentication) that will not help me during development.

Where can I setup Apache to make requests to the proxy with user/password?
Or can I enter the proxy settings (including password) somewhere general in windows?

How to set up apache as proxy => http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_proxy.html

use auth

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/howto/auth.html

In earlier days in browsers you could use http://user:password@domain.tld/file.ext

Not sure if a javascript request / ajax can do that, but you can try.
