PR: Astaro V8.201 HTTP Proxy Issues

Since the release of Astaro Security Gateway Version 8.201, we have noticed an increased amount of customer issues regarding the HTTP Proxy. Below is an overview of the issues raised:

• 18771: Passwords with special characters (@, =, etc.) cause authentication to fail when using "Transparent w/ Auth" mode
• 18929: "Transparent Proxy w/ Auth" is not working properly
• 18880: Edir SSO authentication still times out in HTTP Proxy after V8.201
• 18825: HTTP Proxy doesn't reauthenticate AD SSO client after auth exception matched
• 18653: If the HTTPs Proxy is enabled, login to some websites may result in an "Internal Server Error"
• 18936: HTTP Proxy: SSL tunnel handler does not close client connection in all cases

For a complete list of open issues, please refer to our Known Issues List in our KnowledgeBase: http://www.astaro.com/lists/Known_Issues-ASG-V8.txt

We are working on a HTTP Proxy patch package, which we plan to release early next week.
