Node JS installation behind firewall with ntlm authentication.

Strangely enough the ntlmaps.exe didn't work well with Nodejs.  Downloading of the dependencies and javascripts fails.

Quick solution for this was using px-proxy pyhon based proxy.

You can Install it with:

pip install px-proxy

and run it with:

px --proxy=X.X.X.X:port 

where X.X.X.X is Ip address of your firewall and port is the port used.

The catch here was that to use pip ... i used ntlmaps.exe  (see one of my previous posts)

So, you need a ntlm proxy (ntlmaps.exe)  to download ntlm proxy (px-proxy) behind firewall ;-)
