Mike:

Thats exactly what I meant! I want to record the "HTTP BASIC Authentication"
along with other actions. I will also start looking into the code more to
see if there is any workaround I can find.

Thanks for (2). I will try it and let you know.

Thanks,

Hitesh.

Hitesh,

Regarding 1)
     When you say HTTP Basic Authentication isn't working, are you talking
about it not working while you are recording your activity with the proxy
server?  If so, I would indeed expect it not to work.  I'm sure I could make
some changes to make it work, however.  I will look into it and see if it's
reasonable to do for the upcoming stable 1.7 release.  If that's not what
you mean, please clarify.

Regarding 2)
	JMeter can use a proxy server itself.  To do so, start jmeter as
follows:

In jmeter/bin:
	jmeter -h your.proxy.server.ip -p [proxy server port]

example: jmeter -h 192.168.16.1 -p 3422

I've never tried it while recording from JMeter, but it theoretically should
work.

-Mike
