[Twisted-Python] Proxy setup OscarDemo

Our AIM connectivity goes through a proxy server (facetime). What changes are required in the oscardemo in order to support a proxy? Thanks, Dave

I'm not sure that there are any changes required, although obviously it depends on what the proxy is doing. Have you tried just pointing the oscardemo at your proxy rather than at login.oscar.aol.com?

I tried pointing to it first. It accepts both credentials and hangs. --Dave -----Original Message----- From: twisted-python-bounces@twistedmatrix.com [mailto:twisted-python-bounces@twistedmatrix.com] On Behalf Of Glyph Lefkowitz Sent: Tuesday, November 09, 2004 6:53 PM To: Twisted general discussion Subject: Re: [Twisted-Python] Proxy setup OscarDemo On Tue, 2004-11-09 at 16:29 -0500, Dave Siracusa wrote:

Do you need to go through a proxy for all outgoing connections? login.oscar.aol.com is only the authenticator. It gives the client a different server to connect to after it authenticates the user. It sounds like that's where your problem lies. -p -- Paul Swartz (o_ http://z3p.livejournal.com/ //\ z3p@twistedmatrix.com V_/_ AIM: z3penguin GPG:5CF0B1C9

I'm not sure how the proxy is setup -- I'll need to ask. My AIM client only works when I specify a proxy:port in the setup along with login.oscar...

It sounds like yes, all traffic needs to go through the proxy. In that case, you'll need to override OscarAuthenticator.connectBOS() to connect through the proxy. -p -- Paul Swartz (o_ http://z3p.livejournal.com/ //\ z3p@twistedmatrix.com V_/_ AIM: z3penguin GPG:5CF0B1C9
