[Nikto-discuss] Proxy doesn't work

[Ryan Dewhurst]

Hello,
It seems that the proxy is not being used when nikto is scanning.
This is what the "proxy" part looks like in config.txt

PROXYHOST=202.75.144.60
#PROXYPORT=8080
#PROXYUSER=proxyuserid
#PROXYPASS=proxypassword

If I change PROXYHOST to an invalid IP address, nikto still scans with no
errors. Does nikto recognise that its invalid and automatically scans with
no proxy and with out prompting? Or is the PROXYHOST just not working at
all? I will download apache to test this myself, that way I will be able to
check the logs for the IP address.

Any one else encounter this?
