    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-12999?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12732632#comment-12732632 ] 

Andre Dietisheim commented on JBIDE-12999:
------------------------------------------

the EclipseAuthenticator in EGit is using the proxy credentials from the preferences. The default NetAuthenticator is not using them, it simply pops up a dialog for the user to provide thos. I'm not very sure about ECF doing the same, I couldn't spot them looking up.
The only shortcoming I spot for OpenShift (since we're using the EGit EclipseAuthenticator) is that you can't be sure that noone overrides the EGit Authenticator. We simply make sure EGit UI is started when we pop up the connection dialog since EGit UI bundle activator installs the EclipseAuthenticator when it starts. Given it's already started another bundle with its very own Authenticator could override the EclipseAuthenticator. The user would then get stuck again if that Authenticator does funky stuff...
