Hello All:
I'm having a strange issue with the yum proxy settings. It is
directly related to passwords containing exclamation points.
For example, the following works fine in yum.conf:
http_proxy=http://somentlmproxy.somecompany.com
http_password=regularpassword
However, if the password contains any exclamation points, it will not
authenticate properly. E.g., a password such as "TheyKilledKenny!!"
will fail, but "TheyKilledKenny??" will work fine.
I've tried exporting http_proxy from the command line and escaping the
exclamation points:
http_proxy=http://klowe:TheyKilledKenny\!\!@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:80
but no success.
Any workarounds to get this going? Unfortunately, I do not have any
control over the password.
