    text
    copied!<p>The deployment requirements for my app (a windows service written in C#) state the presence of a Proxy server. </p> <p>From my interaction with the person who will install my app: 1. His company blocks access to internet via the proxy 2. He needs to provide the path to the proxy <b>script</b> in his IE Config. 3. He also needs to input a user-name/password.</p> <p>My application needs to access a publicly hosted WebService. In preparation, I sent him a test Winform app. In the app.config file I used the setting mentioned in this post <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/127241/net-client-app-how-to-reach-web-services-in-case-of-proxy">.NET client app: how to reach Web Services in case of proxy?</a> However, it did not work. I customized the proxy setting in App.config as per his IE settings, yet nothing seemed to work.</p> <p>I don't want to hard-code the proxy settings in my app using the System.Net classes. There is no doubt in my mind that I want to use the config file. </p> <p>So, I want to install a proxy on a VPC image and try and get my application to run. </p> <p>My question: 1. What is a good proxy that I can install on my VM (windows only - no linux/squid pls.) that will replicate the behaviour that I mentioned in 2 &amp; 3 above. 2. In case it is of interest, the proxy settings I used was:</p> <pre><code>&lt;system.net&gt; &lt;defaultProxy &gt; &lt;proxy usesystemdefault= “False“ proxyaddress=“http://10.1.10.10:8080“ bypassonlocal=“True“ /&gt; &lt;/defaultProxy&gt; &lt;/system.net&gt; </code></pre> <p>Assuming that the system will read the settings from IE, I also tried </p> <pre><code>&lt;proxy autoDetect="true" /&gt; </code></pre> <p>It did not work.</p> <p>Pls. let me know if my requirements are unclear.</p>
