These are optional Items that we find handy if you are developing on Windows using VMs and/or behind corporate firewalls
CNTLM proxy (allows storing user names for authenticated proxies)¶
VMs and Containers are not “local” and require your CNTLM proxy to act as a gateway
- ubuntu:
sudo apt-get install cntlm sudo vi/etc/cntlm.conf``1. make sure that you allow NON local hosts to use the proxy (set``gateway yes`)!- add your credentials
- make sure the port is 3128
sudo service cntlm restart
You likely also need to tell your Squid proxy to use CNTLM! With the following additional Squid config lines (assumed CNTLM using port 3128):
always_direct allow to_localnet
always_direct allow to_localhost
cache_peer 127.0.0.1 parent 3128 0 default
never_direct allow all
