I see how I can set a proxy server using the new NSHTTPPropertyHTTPProxy key
in NSURLHandle, but what if the user has "Secure Web Proxy" selected in
System Prefs? What about their login and password. My app makes
connections on the backend, so the user can't go to a special page in a
browser and fill that stuff in. It'll have to be set in my prefs window.
But how to I tell NSURLHandle to use that name and password? There's no
place for the user to fill that in in System Prefs, so obviously I'll have
to set it myself. How?

I am fully aware that in 10.2, all of the blaBlaBlaWithContentsOfURL methods
use the proxy settings from System Prefs, so please do not detour my thread
talking about that.

The question is specifically about setting secure proxy username and
password for an NSURLHandle in 10.2.


Each application has to provide the proxy login/password by itself. Look at Safari which pops a login/password panel for proxy auth.

However, Panther seems to define a system keychain and proxy preferences seems to propose to configure proxy l/p system wide.
