Hello,
I'm trying to get a file from HTTPS using Crypt:SSLeay and so far it works
for other HTTPS URL but not this particular url however, a person advise me
to pass a proxy. How do you pass the proxy? I have the syntax but not sure
if I'm suppose to use on the REQUEST part before getting the file or what??
Here is what I asked below:
For instance, my variable $req = new
> HTTP::Request('GET','https://user:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/path')
>
> Now where do I set it to go thru a proxy? Do I say :
> $req = $ua->proxy('http','http://proxy path');
> I'm not sure how to code to say to get this file thru a proxy?

I don't know about much about proxying, except it doesn't
currently work with Crypt::SSLeay ... for https support under
LWP, generally, you should send email to
"[EMAIL PROTECTED]" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
, which I read... for general lwp issues, there's another list.
