Are you sure libcurl will send this on this form when talking to a web
server? It's not an URL format you normally send to a server (any
protocol), only Internet proxies..

A reverse proxy is the server in terms of protocol.

Then you need to use standard HTTP authentication, and the web server
needs to return "Cache-Control: public" or you need to use
refresh_pattern to override this..
