Hello Monks,
I feel like going mad.
I need a perl-script, doing a 'https-file-get' to a http proxy with proxy-authentication. So far so good:

#!/usr/local/bin/perl -w

use LWP::UserAgent;
use LWP::Debug qw(+);

$ENV{HTTPS_PROXY} = 'http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:8080';
$ENV{HTTPS_PROXY_USERNAME} = 'myUsername';
$ENV{HTTPS_PROXY_PASSWORD} = 'myPassword';


my $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new;
my $req = HTTP::Request->new'GET',"https://url.name.de/");
my $res = $ua->request($req);
print $res->content;
[download]

BUT:

LWP::UserAgent::new: ()
LWP::UserAgent::request: ()
LWP::UserAgent::send_request: GET https://freemail.web.de/
LWP::UserAgent::_need_proxy: Not proxied
LWP::Protocol::http::request: ()
LWP::UserAgent::request: Simple response: Internal Server Error
[download]

is the result. So it seems that the Crypt::SSLeay does not work like it's mentionend in perldoc Crypt::SSLeay. The proxy is not recognized by LWP.

          For native Crypt::SSLeay proxy support of https requests,
          you need to set an environment variable HTTPS_PROXY to your
          proxy server & port, as in:

            # PROXY SUPPORT
            $ENV{HTTPS_PROXY} = 'http://proxy_hostname_or_ip:port';
            $ENV{HTTPS_PROXY} = '127.0.0.1:8080';

          Use of the HTTPS_PROXY environment variable in this way is
          similar to LWP::UserAgent->env_proxy() usage, but calling
          that method will likely override or break the Crypt::SSLeay
          support, so do not mix the two.

          Basic auth credentials to the proxy server can be provided
          this way:

            # PROXY_BASIC_AUTH
            $ENV{HTTPS_PROXY_USERNAME} = 'username';
            $ENV{HTTPS_PROXY_PASSWORD} = 'password';

          For an example of LWP scripting with Crypt::SSLeay native
          proxy support, please see the source of the ./lwp-ssl-test
          script in the Crypt::SSLeay distribution.

Also the lwp-ssl-test does not recognize the proxy. And I can't use the LWP Proxy Supportliek this:

my $ua = new LWP::UserAgent;
$ua->proxy([qw( https http )], "$proxy_ip:$proxy_port");
[download]

... because my proxy needs a CONNECT which is not yet implemented in LWP.

Any help/hints are welcome.
Cheers
