[Yum] Getting proxy to work - a possible solution

[jason at altarstone.com (Jason)]

I'm behind a M$ proxy at work which uses NTLM authentication. yum
has never worked through it, currently using 2.4.1

Someone suggested using NTLMaps, http://ntlmaps.sourceforge.net/
which implements NTLM authentication (in python) and acts as a pass
through proxy.

I now have yum working through the M$ proxy. It would be nice if
this could be made a FAQ or even better if yum could be made to
handle it natively.

Jason.
