Bug #435: open-uri.rb 407 Proxy Authentication Required 
(OpenURI::HTTPError)
http://redmine.ruby-lang.org/issues/show/435

Status: Open, Priority: Normal


Even if i set in /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/open-uri.rb proxy settings like that:
module OpenURI
  Options = {
    :proxy => "http://user:password@192.168.1.1:8080",
    :progress_proc => true,
    :content_length_proc => true,
    :http_basic_authentication => true
  }
i will get 407 error.

To fix that replace:
      if proxy
        klass = Net::HTTP::Proxy(proxy.host, proxy.port)
      end
with:
      if proxy
        klass = Net::HTTP::Proxy(proxy.host, proxy.port, proxy.user, 
proxy.password)
      end
