I have an issue where we have setup a NTLM proxy on the corporate level, but we have some code that we do not own that does not support NTLM proxies. Is there a way to create a proxy to automatically pass the NTLM information needed using Python?
I would prefer to be able to just stand up the proxy as needed when the script is run at given times.
Is this possible to do? Can anyone provide a sample on how to do this? Samples can be given in Python 3.4 or 2.7.
Thanks for reading!

- Fortinet Community This article describes how to configure explicit proxy and authenticate users using NTLM protocol. 1) Enable web proxy. 2) Add a LDAP server. 3) Configure authentication scheme. Create new domain controller by selecting '+ Create tab'. 4) Configure authentication Rule. Select protocol to HTTP.
To use a proxy in Python, first import the requests package. Next create a proxies dictionary that defines the HTTP and HTTPS connections. This variable should be a dictionary that maps a protocol to the proxy URL. Additionally, make a url variable set to the webpage you're scraping from.
3) Configure authentication scheme. Create new domain controller by selecting '+ Create tab'. 4) Configure authentication Rule. Select protocol to HTTP. Then select the NTLM method previously configured and disable IP-based authentication.
However, if the browser is closed after successfully authenticating NTLM credentials and kept the session idle for more than 5 minutes (Default proxy session timeout 5 min), then an authentication timed-out under User Events will appear. auth_method = 2 <----- Means the user has been authenticated using NTLM method.
