[Quickfixj-users] quickfix HTTP/Connect proxy handler

[Chris M. <chr...@ne...>]

 Hi,We are trying to connect quickfixj to a venue via a http/connect based proxy.This link worked fine using SOCKS and a curl command also connects through to the client with http/connect without problem
In the log Im seeing this error, it looks very similar to previous support mails, I believe from reading them that the first 407 is expected but it should then try to authenticate with the username/pwd?
Does quickfixj support HTTP/CONNECT and if so which version ?Is it possible to turn on logging in the Apache mina component as well ?Thanks,Chris
