------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wed Nov 5 17:09:56 +0000 2008 ------- Squid caching proxy server authentication dialogue is required, but fails to present, when Mac OS X 10.5.5 is configured to use a proxy.pac proxy auto-configuration file. The bug is evident with use of at least http://www.sussex.ac.uk/proxy.pac System Preferences… | Network | (select interface) | Advanced… | Proxies | Configure Proxies | Manually with a proper manual configuration does result in presentation of the required authentication dialogue. (I have screen shots, on someone else's laptop, I'll aim to attach the images to this ticket when that laptop is next in my possession.) = Bug = System Preferences… | Network | (select interface) | Advanced… | Proxies | Configure Proxies | Using a PAC file causes OOo to _not_ present the required dialogue; so * checking for updates can not occur† and, presumably * Internet-related functions elsewhere in the application suite will fail. FWIW: defocusing from OOo, applications such as Microsoft Office 2004, Microsoft Office 2008 and Adobe Reader for Mac OS X are similarly incompatible with use of proxy auto-configuration files of at least two institutions: http://www.brighton.ac.uk/proxy.pac http://www.sussex.ac.uk/proxy.pac It should be great to have a resolution or explanation for this issue. † If behaviour of Microsoft and Adobe applications in the same situations are anything to go by, I'll estimate that an OOo check for updates may report that none are available even when there _is_ an update available. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
