Right. I can live with that. But just to illustrate my point, here is how my authentication part looks:
if (!proxy_authorize("$fd", "subcriber") { proxy_challenge("$fd", "9"); drop; }
I don't really see any reason why I would want the switch and cases when proxy_challenge() magically does what I want.
operators using my proxy want to know why authentication fails. it is very useful information when some user complains that his/her ua is not able to authenticate and in bigger installations that happens quite often.
Okay. That would be a completely different albeit much simpler patch than mine.
can i go ahead and try to do it? if you want, you can then use flag "16" for whatever more complicated stuff.
