| Just to be sure, I'm running this as a launchd daemon running as root. This is running on Mac OS. I now have:
- (BOOL)downloadShouldUseCredentialStorage: (NSURLDownload *)download { return true;
}
then in didReceiveAuthenticationChallenge:
theStorage = [NSURLCredentialStorage sharedCredentialStorage]; NSURLCredential *theCredential = [theStorage defaultCredentialForProtectionSpace: [challenge protectionSpace]];
// this returns NULL
then I tried both useCredential (with the null credential) and also continueWithoutCredentialForAuthenticationChallenge. I've never seen the keychain dialog come up like it does for Safari. I looked at the entry in the keychain and it has allow access
for: AuthBrokerAgent, Safari, and System Preferences.
Any other ideas?
Thanks, Elliott

NSURLConnection will do that for you if you don't tell it not to by returning false from
- (BOOL)connectionShouldUseCredentialStorage:(NSURLConnection *)connection
Are you on iOS or Mac OS here? On iOS, your app simply doesn't have access to the system keychain, so you will always have to prompt the user for creds at least once. On Mac OS, if the creds are stored in the system keychain ( which is what system preferences does ), you should get a keychain request dialog for the keychain item.

problem I'm having is getting the username and password of the proxy from the System Preferences/Keychain. I tried getting the credentials using NSURLCredentialStorage but it's empty. Is there a way to get this information first? --- On Wed, 6/22/11, Mark Pauley < email@hidden> wrote: From: Mark Pauley <email@hidden>

Have you taken a look at
NSURLCredentialStorage?
http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/Cocoa/Reference/Foundation/Classes/NSURLCredentialStorage_Class/Reference/Reference.html
That's the preferred way of storing creds in the
keychain. In the event that there is no default cred
in the storage, you'll need to put up an auth dialog.
Just make sure you store the credential you get from the
dialog in your credential storage.

automatically.
I tried removing my delegate's
didReceiveAuthenticationChallenge to see if it would be
handled automatically and it doesn't work. I re-added
this and trace through it and see that the proposed
credential is NULL in the passed challenge. I
hardcoded the username and password for the proxy and pass
this via NSURLCredential's credentialWithUser: and it does
work.
Do I need to use (credentialWithUser: password:
persistence: ) to create the NSURLCredential? If so,
how do I get the username and password?
I do see in Safari that it brings up a keychain dialog
to access the information. I found the item in the
keychain. Should I try to access this directly?
Thanks,
