How to Use curl with Proxy for Web Requests? Troubleshooting Tips Included

22 Replies, 1687 Views

Hey there! Just wanted to chime in—curl with proxy can be tricky, especially with auth. If you’re getting timeouts, it might be a network issue or the proxy server is slow.

Try adding `--proxy-anyauth` to let curl handle the authentication automatically. It’s saved me a ton of headaches.

Also, if you’re on Windows, double-check your firewall settings. Sometimes it blocks outgoing proxy connections.

Good luck!
