Comment 8 for bug 617478

Yes. The same proxy handles all traffic to the outside world (as long
as the port isn't blocked). I don't have issues with Empathy, Firefox,
Chrome, etc...

With the web browsers, it seems they make the request first
unauthenticated. Then they get a 407 back... only then do they try to
supply the username/password. I'm not sure if there is method to the
madness there or not.

I don't mind compiling from source, it just takes a while due to the
Bazaar blocking. I think I got all the prerequisites for building this
morning.
