Re: pycurl NTLM proxy authentication settings

hi,
i would be suprised if this was a pycurl issue - are you able to to
connect using a curl commandline instead of pycurl?
if so, you can dump the libcurl options set for the corresponding
commandline options by using the '--libcurl' commandline option.
perhaps this reveals if there are options set by curl that are missing
from your code.
