Supported proxy authentication methods
NetDetour supports the following authentication methods depending on the type of proxy server:
- HTTP/HTTPS Proxies: NetDetour supports username/password authentication and integrated Windows authentication.
- SOCKS4: NetDetour can send a User ID if provided. SOCKS4 only supports host-based authentication, performed by the server.
- SOCKS5: NetDetour supports username/password and GSSAPI authentication.
- SSH1: NetDetour supports password and public key authentication with this legacy version of SSH.
- SSH2: NetDetour supports password, public key, and GSSAPI authentication methods. Multi-factor authentication is fully supported.
Tip
For SSH public key authentication, make sure you have a key file in the OpenSSH format.
Tip
Credential-less methods, such as integrated Windows authentication and GSSAPI, are commonly referred to as Single Sign-On (SSO) authentication methods.
