Px is an HTTP/HTTPS proxy server that automatically handles NTLM and Kerberos proxy authentication, typically in corporate environments, using Windows SSPI single sign-on or configured credentials. It is a Python-based CLI tool built on libcurl that supports all libcurl authentication mechanisms.

Use cases

  • authenticate through an NTLM corporate proxy
  • use pip and git behind a corporate proxy that requires Windows authentication
  • run a local proxy that handles Kerberos/NTLM handshake automatically
  • configure proxy authentication with a PAC file
  • bypass proxy for specific hosts while routing others through NTLM proxy
  • run proxy authentication on Linux or macOS with domain credentials

When to choose

  • you are behind a corporate NTLM/Kerberos proxy and tools cannot authenticate themselves
  • you want single sign-on proxy auth using the logged-in Windows account
  • you need a cross-platform proxy authenticator with PAC file support

When to avoid

  • your proxy uses standard basic auth or no authentication
  • you need a general-purpose forward proxy with caching or TLS inspection
  • you need a GUI-managed proxy client
