This is a problem running the Nodejs package manager (NPM) on Windows in an network running ActiveDirectory - and the problem seems to be because I'm behind a corporate proxy.
I want NPM INSTALL to work...
We have a proxy which uses WPAD and authentication.
From the Wpad.dat I have gotten the proxy's FQDN and port (see below).
I have used
NPM CONFIG SET PROXY = http://<domain>%5C<username>:<passwordwith#>@ddcrpit311v1.corp.<company>.global:8080
to set the proxy information (with username & password) and also
NPM CONFIG SET HTTPS-PROXY = <as above>
I have set
NPM CONFIG SET registry = http://registry.npmjs.org/
so that I don't have to worry about SSL and (just in case)
NPM CONFIG SET strict-ssl = false
Still I am getting errors:
>npm install sax-js

I tried without the %5C, as well as /\ all with the same result.
I tried configuring fiddler2 to work as a reverse proxy, and I set the proxy address to localhost:8888, and configured fiddler to connect to the proxy - but then I ran into errors as well.
Is there a simple proxy program I can set up as a reverse proxy that will authenticate for me? Is there something in Node to try?
Any ideas welcome!
