A bit more detail: I recently got a Chromebook (nope, I haven't installed Linux/Crouton on it, yet). So this system does not have a web server on it, which is what I would normally use. And I don't want to set up a remote webserver. Instead, my hope it to have the proxy.pac file reside locally on the Chromebook itself. So the URL to the proxy.pac file would be something like file:///home/chronos/.../proxy.pac. But thus far, that does not seem to be working. Thanks for the feedback thus far.
