Description Enrico Scholz 2007-05-05 12:18:09 UTC 
Description of problem:

Although koji uses HTTP protocol it ignores proxy settings and connects
directly to the target host. This makes it unusable in most environments
behind a firewall.

| $ set | grep proxy
| http_proxy=http://www-cache:3128/
| https_proxy=http://www-cache:3128/
|
| $ strace koji list-api
| connect(3, {sa_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(80), sin_addr=inet_addr("209.132.176.98")}, 16 <unfinished ...>

Comment 1 Mike McLean 2007-05-07 19:19:40 UTC 
Is a web proxy really appropriate for xml-rpc?
Comment 2 Enrico Scholz 2007-05-07 19:35:03 UTC 
Using HTTP(S) as transport protocol is the base idea behind XML-RPC. Therefore: yes

plague-client++ (which uses libcurl) makes perfect use of proxies for the old
buildsystem.
