Jun 15, 2012 7:55 AM in response to Linc Davisby TravCorpTech,Linc,
I have the inverted issue. The link you provided is a problem of someone's one website not functioning properly with Safari. My issue is all 'https' websites within my network (w/ proxy authentication) using Safari.
If I take one of these systems give them direct access to the network, it works fine, but obviously cannot access our intranet.
To confirm my findings, I have created an exception for one certificate authority to not require authentication on the proxy and it works fine.Unfortunately, I don't want to have to fish for every possible CA domain just to provide a workaround to what is clearly a fault with the application.
If I look at our proxy logs, or use Wireshark, I can clearly see Safari not providing any credentials.

Jun 19, 2012 10:51 AM in response to TravCorpTechby pckizer,If it's possible for you to use a direct connection for the OCSP checks (rather than needing them to go through the proxy as well), you could add the following to your Proxy Bypass list in System Preferences -> Networking -> Proxies:
evsecure-ocsp.geotrust.com,
evssl-ocsp.geotrust.com,
ocsp.apple.com,
ocsp.apple.com,
ocsp.cacert.org,
ocsp.comodoca.com,
ocsp.digicert.com,
ocsp.entrust.net,
ocsp.godaddy.com,
ocsp.startssl.com,
ocsp.thawte.com,
evsecure-ocsp.thawte.com,
ocsp.usertrust.com,
ocsp.verisign.com,
evintl-ocsp.verisign.com,
evsecure-ocsp.verisign.com
Those are just the ones I've found so far. There are definitely others, I just haven't hit sites that use certs from the other providers just yet.
Good luck.

Jun 20, 2012 6:57 AM in response to TravCorpTechby BasementJack,I have the same problem and it's frustrating as can be.
What happens to me is that When I bring my laptop to work, and put it on the work network and launch Safari, Safari informs me that each of my plugins is invalid and then uninstalls them - I'm effectively not able to use any plug ins at work, and I have to go hunt them down when I get back home (for reference, The extensions are still physically in \users\me\Library\Safari\Extensions - so when I get home I can just double click on all of them)
I opened a case with apple and I encourage you to do the same. Perhaps if enough users complain they will find a gentler way to work with it.
They had me do a capture and after analyzing it said it was an issue with the work network and not being able to valdate the extensions.
It sounds like the same issue you have - as my work network uses a proxy as well.
The rep suggested that I use a different browser at work, but I'm so used to clicking safari, that I do it out of habit.
I really like Safari, and hope they get it fixed - Safari may not get respect in the windows world, but it's really a great browser - especially on a laptop where screen real estate is limited (where I often hit command-shift-\ to hide the address bar to see more of the page)
