QM was tested in an environment which included a firewall requiring the
proxy settings. It worked fine in that environment when the following
fields were set with the same proxy entries that worked in our Netscape
browser:
my $proxy = ''; # proxy server
my $port = ''; # proxy server port
my $noproxy = ''; # local domain
The $proxy should work with either IP address or name.
Example:
my $proxy = '193.32.226.03'; # proxy server
my $port = '8081'; # proxy server port
my $noproxy = '193.32.226.*'; # local domain
Note, upon looking at the code if the $noproxy entry is ='' then proxy
is not used. Make sure all three have a value. This will be changed in a
future version since there should not be a need for a $noproxy entry.
Cheers,
Jim
