But it seems `wget` can do digest authentication:\r\n\r\n```\r\n       --http-user=user\r\n       --http-password=password\r\n           Specify the username user and password password on an HTTP server.  According to the type of the challenge, Wget will encode them using either the \"basic\" (insecure), the \"digest\", or the Windows \"NTLM\" authentication scheme.\r\n\r\n           Another way to specify username and password is in the URL itself.  Either method reveals your password to anyone who bothers to run \"ps\".  To prevent the passwords from being seen, store them in .wgetrc or .netrc, and make sure to protect those files from other users with\r\n           \"chmod\".  If the passwords are really important, do not leave them lying in those files either---edit the files and delete them after Wget has started the download.\r\n```\r\n\r\nBut I am especially confused with the `wget –auth-no-challenge` usage/syntax that I cannot myself force wget to try digest against a remote proxy server at the moment myself. :( Hmm, maybe 1.12 on the server is too old (and I read manpage for 1.18). :-(("},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/bagder/docs/issues/comments/240558229","html_url":"https://github.com/bagder/docs/issues/6#issuecomment-240558229","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/bagder/docs/issues/6","id":240558229,"user":{"login":"bagder","id":177011,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/177011?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/bagder","html_url":"https://github.com/bagder","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/bagder/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/bagder/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/bagder/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/bagder/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/bagder/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/bagder/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/bagder/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/bagder/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/bagder/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2016-08-17T21:42:12Z","updated_at":"2016-08-17T21:42:12Z","body":"The key there is **over HTTP proxy**.
