Problem Note 11034: How credentials specified on a URL filename statement are honored
Currently, when you specify USER= and PASS= on the filename statement
along with the URL engine, these credentials are passed to either the
proxy server or to the web server, not both.
In SAS 8.0 and above, with USER= and PASS= specified, if PROXY= is also
specified, credentials are sent to the proxy server with a
Proxy-authorization: header. Without a PROXY= option, they are sent to
the web server with an Authorization: header.
There is currently no way to send two sets of credentials.
