The LAN settings in Internet Explorer (which is the official configured client 
at my company) is set at "use automatic configuration script" and points to a 
.pac file on the Ethernet. The proxy parameters are left blank and are disabled.

I can run Firefox though which I needed to add a few domain names under 
"network.automatic-ntlm-auth.trusted-Uris" (several domain separated by comas) 
as well as the same settings under "network.negotiate-auth.delegation-uris" and 
 "network.negotiate-auth.thrusted-uris"

I came to know which domain to add to these Firefox settings after I clicked a 
non-Ethernet link and Firefox would tell me that such and such domain wasn't on 
the approved list or something. 

Possibly that one of these (or all) is a proxy. Can libcurl accepts a list of 
proxy so I can try mimicking Firefox perhaps? I guess my main question now is 
do I need to focus on the proxy settings or could it be another setting 
instead? Thanks for your inputs.
