Hello, hope you are well.
I have an issue where users are accessing an Oracle CRM Cloud Service application and are being prompted for authentication to the proxy server when the application is first run.
The application uses the proxy server configuration found under Internet Options in Control Panel. When you run the application, the proxy authentication pop up box appears, if you press cancel, the connection fails to the cloud URL. If you enter your Active Directory username and password, then it connects and prompts you for the CRM application logon.
What I find strange is that when prompted to authenticate to the proxy server, I can enter random key strokes into the username and password field and it will allow me to connect through.
Under Web Protection then Filtering Options, I have created an exception to skip authentication when accessing the URL, but I still get the logon prompt. I know this exception has something to do with reason why you can enter random key strokes for username and password and it allows you access, because with the exception turned off, you need to put in valid credentials to proceed.
So why when I have created an exception to bypass authentication for a specific URL do I still get the prompt, is this perhaps a bug or is there another way to stop the authentication pop-up.
If I use out old TMG Server as a proxy server with a similar configuration, I don't get a proxy authentication prompt.
Thanks in advance
Dave
