Thanks Ken,I understand I need to use GSSAPI for Linux/MacOS platforms. I was wondering if I can use MIT Kerberos GSSAPI for the same. Does libcurl use MIT Kerberos gssapi ?
Yes my proxy header would look exactly like you mentioned.
Thank-you.

I believe you would want to use the GSSAPI for this. If your header
looks like:
Proxy-Authorization: Negotiate <base64 encoded data>
Then definitely you want to use that. You could use libcurl as example
code if you wanted to see what this would look like.
