Thank you for the insight.

Another question a little bit off topic: you use apache's httpclient lib, right? Wich version is used in artifcatory 2.0.6?

I am asking you this, because I recently update from maven 2.1.0 to 2.2.0 and since all proxy authentications fail (NTLMv2 probably). Artifactory (at least 2.0.4) is able to authenticate successfully. Have you patched httpclient, used jcifs or is it just plain vanilla httpclient?

It's more a workaround, but you could create a "test" remote cache that is
not included in any virtual repo and is limited by pattern to a single
artifact path (so the effect is minimal even on the "repo" global virtual
repo) and/or even to admin users. You can then assign a different proxy
reference that you wish to test to that repo, delete the repo (single file)
content and try hitting the file's url to check it can be retrieved
remotely.
Or - you could, of course, use wget or curl to test any kind of proxy config
combo from the command line ;)

HTH,

Yoav
