[TriLUG] unhappy proxy apps

Hi all,


	I have an app that I'm evaluating at work, inprotect www.inprotect.com.
 This is a web front end, and reporting engine for nessus.  This looks
pretty cool, some of it's features are actually where my problems lie.
It has a set of scripts and executables that reach out to update the
nessus plugins for you. These things are not at all proxy aware, and I
don't have a way to ignore the proxy.

	I REALLY don't want to stick username/password in a script, being that
the app is a security tool. ;') (It's not what I would call leading by
example)

	I have looked at proxychains, but it wants you to put a
username/password in a config file.

	I guess that I can get a proxy pass, but it's a lot of paperwork and
energy for evaluating some software.

	Ideas would be most welcome, either for the proxy issue, or the idea of
a web wrapper for nessus etc.



TIA


	Kevin
