| Comeback of auth httpproxy problem |

Hi, all.
I am again about 'using rubygems behind authenticated proxy' problem.
Some time ago this problem was fixed in SVN and I (and other people) start using rubygems in corporate environment.
But with 0.9.1 release I've got several responses that it does not work anymore. People start receiving PROXY AUTHENTICATION ERROR again.
I dig into this problem and found that it happens because new version of rubygems do not contain open-uri library. And current version uses open-uri from standard package.
But unfortunately open-uri in 1.8.4 has lack of authenticated proxy support. It does not takes into account username and password passed in url parameter. This bug was fixed in 1.9.x ruby branch and we have ability to use proxy_http_basic_authentication parameter.
So my patch that fixes this problem includes required changes to Rubygems code + open-uri library from 1.9 branch. I've just check it for corporate firewall and it works well.

Thanks. As I am now working behind a corporate firewall of
superhuman
strength, I appreciate this patch. Now, if we could get it
to work
with a proxy using NTLM authentication, even I would be
happy.
This is a easy thing to miss. I will put a challenge out
there for
someone to come up with a good test of the proxy
functionality so that
we don't accidently lose this feature again.

Ok, I have committed the open-uri with user/password support
patch
into the trunk.

Anatol ... could you check this out when you get a chance.
Thanks.

Thanks. As I am now working behind a corporate firewall of superhuman
strength, I appreciate this patch. Now, if we could get it to work
with a proxy using NTLM authentication, even I would be happy.
AFAIK most of the corporate proxies support several authentication methods. My corporate firewall uses Basic, NTLM, Digest.
If you are trying to add NTLM proxy support you should look into Net:HTTP package, cause open-uri uses it.
This is a easy thing to miss. ; I will put a challenge out there for
someone to come up with a good test of the proxy functionality so that
we don't accidently lose this feature again.
I'll try to write at least simple test. But I am not sure how to implement 'good test for the proxy functionality'.

Right now I am unable to do it. But I'll check it at Monday
when I'll
be in the office.
