Proxy Server Credentials setting for Internet Access

[Praveen Shastri]

Hello,

I have a local authenticated proxy server in my environment which is not on the local domain. It is a standalone proxy server and had specific login credentials.

When I try to access internet on internet explorer, I am prompted to enter proxy server login details. Also when i execute "invoke-webrequest" command on powershell, i get the error. Details below:

======================


Invoke-WebRequest -uri www.google.es
Invoke-WebRequest :
Access Denied (authentication_failed)
Your credentials could not be authenticated: "Credentials are missing.". You will not be permitted access until your
credentials can be verified.
This is typically caused by an incorrect username and/or password, but could also be caused by network problems.
For assistance, contact your network support team.
At line:1 char:1
+ Invoke-WebRequest -uri www.google.es
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ CategoryInfo : InvalidOperation: (System.Net.HttpWebRequest:HttpWebRequest) [Invoke-WebRequest], WebExc
eption
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : WebCmdletWebResponseException,Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.InvokeWebRequestCommand

===================================

How can i store the standalone proxy server credentials in common location, so that I am not prompted to enter credentials on any application (Internet explorer or outlook or powershell) when accessing internet.

Thanks,

Praveen
