Hi,
I come a cross the same problem on RHEL6.1.
yum-rhn-plugin-0.9.1-26.el6_1.1.noarch
I have set two testing HTTP Proxy Squid configurations with Authentication:
NCSA Authentication
PAM Authentication
I have tested with those User names and Passwords.
PROXY_USER="proxy_user_${RANDOM}"
PROXY_PASS='proxy_password'
NCSA PASS
PAM PASS
PROXY_USER="proxy_user_${RANDOM}"
PROXY_PASS='#proxypassword'
NCSA - FAIL
PAM - FAIL
PROXY_USER="proxy_user_${RANDOM}"
PROXY_PASS='proxy#password'
NCSA - FAIL
PAM - FAIL
I have just noticed one weird scenario:
1. Register to rhn.errata.stage.redhat.com
2. Sqiud Configuration /etc/squid/squid.conf -- See attachment
3. Restart Squid: service squid restart
4. Configure yum - /etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date
enableProxy=1
httpProxy=localhost:3128
enableProxyAuth=1
htpasswd -cb /etc/squid/passwd proxy_1 'ddddddd#'
yum remove zsh -y
sed -i.bak 's|^\(proxyPassword=\).*|\1ddddddd#|;s|^\(proxyUser=\).*|\1proxy_1|'
/etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date;
diff /etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date{.bak,}
yum install zsh -y
FAIL
---
htpasswd -cb /etc/squid/passwd proxy_2 'dddddddd#'
yum remove zsh -y
sed -i.bak
's|^\(proxyPassword=\).*|\1dddddddd#|;s|^\(proxyUser=\).*|\1proxy_2|'
/etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date;
diff /etc/sysconfig/rhn/up2date{.bak,}
yum install zsh -y
PASS
It seems it is somehow depends on the Password length.
If the password length is more than 8 it passes.
I think the problem could be in "htpasswd".
