Unified Functional Testing from Hewlett Packard behind a NTLM proxy server.

A colleague of mine wanted to work with Hewlett Packard's UFT/QTP version 11 behind a proxy server, which only supported NTLM. The secret to making it work, because UTF version 11 doesn't support NTLM, was to install cntlm (version 0.92.3) from sourceforge between the test suite and the proxy server on the machine, which was hosting the HP program. After setting up the default cntlm.ini file with the proper proxy server host and port information, user name and password, cntlm was then started as follows:

cntlm -c cntlm.ini -u myuser@mydomain

When UTF asked for the proxy information, localhost and 3128, the port which cntlm was configure to listen on, were entered in the screen below:
