Public bug reported: Using Feisty (Linux 2.6.20-12-generic #2 SMP Sun Mar 18 03:07:14 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux) on my company laptop.
I am working in one of our offices behind a proxy needing authentication (username, password). With System -> Preferences -> Network Proxy I configured "Automatic proxy configuration", but I can not enter a username and password, nor does any of the applications prompt me for these authentication details - except for Firefox. ... with this I can not use Gaim, Skype, Synaptic, etc. while I am at the office. Nor does Evolution download pictures contained in emails coming from outside our intranet. Other than that: Network support in Feisty is just great! I benefit from the roaming features a lot as I am working in different locations all the time. ** Affects: Ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- Gnome Proxy with Authentication https://launchpad.net/bugs/94056 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
