I use internet behind http proxy, and that requires authentication. I tried
using polipo to bypass the authenticated proxy to 127.0.0.1:9134.

Applying these settings to my browser, works fine for
http://examplewebsite.com

but for https://examplewebsite.com, it asks for authentication. Also my
host proxy authentication does not work in the authentication dialog.

Please help.


Settings I have changed in my /etc/polipo/config

parentProxy = "172.31.1.10:8080"
parentAuthCredentials = "username:mypassword"
