I am able to use Google Chrome under Linux Mint behind a proxy. But when the browser starts, each time I have to enter the username and password for the authentication.
Is there any way I can set the username password as I launch the browser?
I have already tried:
chrome --proxy-server="username:password@yourIP:PORT"
(e.g., chrome --proxy-server="username:password@127.0.0.1:8080"
)
This did not work.
Try setting system-wide proxy settings where you can provide the proxy address and credentials to Linux itself - http://justintung.com/2013/04/25/how-to-configure-proxy-settings-in-linux/. You can then let Chrome run without any proxy settings as Linux will do that for you. Also, if your proxy server is a Microsoft product (ISA/TMG) then you can install a package on your Linux (a .deb package) called NTLM (I Think). This has a config widow for you to provide proxy address and username/password.

Did you do the export as per the link I put? From your question it still seems you're putting the proxy settings as a startup argument for Chrome... – Kinnectus – 2015-05-25T11:51:56.987
