    My cntlm worked before I upgraded cygwin from 1.5 to 1.7
    When I start the service I got:

    The Cntlm Authentication Proxy service is starting……..
    The Cntlm Authentication Proxy service could not be started.

    More help is available by typing NET HELPMSG 3523

    I already replaced the latest version of cygwin1.dll to cntlm’s path. I can manually start cntlm without problem. However, I did notice there was a new prompt with this version of cygwin:

    C:\Program Files\Cntlm>cntlm -f
    cygwin warning:
      MS-DOS style path detected: C:\Program Files\cntlm\cntlm.ini
      Preferred POSIX equivalent is: /cntlm/cntlm.ini
      CYGWIN environment variable option "nodosfilewarning" turns off this warning.
      Consult the user's guide for more details about POSIX paths:
        http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using.html#using-pathnames
    cntlm: PID 5816: Cntlm ready, staying in the foreground

    I wonder if the problem is related to above warning?

    No idea - cntlm is using it's own cygwin1.dll and it should be primary (it's in the same dir as cntlm.exe). Have you changed or deleted the cygwin1.dll in cntlm's installation dir?

    Have you tried the latest 0.91 release candidate version?

    My environment get a newer version of cygwin1.dll(1.7.1) than the one came with 0.35.1(which is 1.5.24), so I replaced it with mine after installation. I think a lot of people did this here is one http://aexellentcoding.wordpress.com/

    I did try 0.91
    It came with cygwin1.dll(same as mine) so I just use everything out of the box. The service got started without problem. However, the proxy does not work for me, I always got 407 from my company's proxy. My colleague got HTTP OK, but all HTTPS failed, so we both back to 0.35.1

    I see, that's the problem. You cannot just update the DLL. Applications are hard-linked with it. You can change it for simple applications that use only the most common functions - maybe - but generally speaking, it's completely wrong.

    Cygwin1.dll is not like your typical DLL, it's an almost complete POSIX implementation and has very very complex relations with binaries. Each Cygwin application (exe+dll) is completely standalone. The binary and the DLL are a single piece of code. You can have as many different versions of the DLL as there are POSIX apps on your system, but you can never mix them…

    Did you say the new version didn't work for you? That's weird - I'll need to test it, or it'll be released as it is and you won't be able to use new versions.

    Please stop the old service, install new and run this from the command line:

    c:
    cd \cntlm\install\dir
    cntlm.exe -T debug.txt -v -f -s

    and then try opening http://www.google.com/ and then https://www.google.com in your browser (with cntlm proxy settings). Kill cntlm and send me your debug.txt. I think it's a configuration problem on your side, but just in case I'd like to see what's going on.

    You see, none of my testers (about a 100 people) has reported anything wrong so far, so if your specific network setup is unsupported, it will stay that way until fixed…

    Thank you very much. I know what's going on.

    NTLM auth must happen in one go, within the same single connection. That's why client and servers send/return proxy-connection: keep-alive. Your proxy, however, doesn't. It's weird and broken (because, in fact, it's *not* closing the connection).

    I removed the check for keep-alive and it should work with your proxy too (get 0.91rc3 from FTP). Please test and report back!

    Thank you,

    I tested 0.91rc4 everything worked out of the box ( in fact I am using it to make this reply)
