http 407 Proxy Authentication Required used in a non-standard way. #56

Closed jrwren closed 6 years ago

jrwren commented 9 years ago

rfc2616 section 10.4.8 says The proxy MUST return a Proxy-Authenticate header field (section 14.33) containing a challenge applicable to the proxy for the requested resource.

The response generated doesn't have this header, I don't think.

I raise this issue only to start the discussion on if this is a good or bad thing and also so that we have some documentation around this use of 407 Proxy Authentication Required.

We've stopped using a 407 response.
