I am using TruClient - IE in order to record a script that connects outside the company firewall. To connect outside the firewall requires authentication via our proxy. While this works fine in record/playback mode on my desktop, attempting to run from Performance Center fails because it is not authenticating using my local web proxy credentials. My ID can authenticate via the proxy -- our load generator's id can not.
I've read that TruClient does not support proxy authentication by default which is unfortunate as this is a very common usecase. I've also read that there may be work arounds. Firefox unfortunatly is not an option since non-standard browsers can not connect outside the firewall at all, with or without the proxy. What I am left with is IE and no, I can not override my custom security settings even if I wanted to.
I've attempted to to use C-Functions to call a wrapped function calling web_set_user in a feeble attempt to authenticate but have been unable to get TruClient to recognize the web_set_user function despite importing the headers. Is this even an option?
Please tell me I am missing something obvious here. I'm not opposed to having my company open a formal case with HP but figured I would start here first. Thank you.
