Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-applets

Hi,

I have a proxy server configured in GNOME with a wpad.dat script for my
network.  I have the gnome application on my desktop.  I don't get any
data.

When I tell the applet to reload, i see this in our Squid logs.

1250239255.714      0 172.16.1.3 TCP_DENIED/407 1906 GET
http://weather.noaa.gov/cgi-bin/mgetmetar.pl? - NONE/- text/html

We require proxy authentication on this network but gnome or the applet
don't seem to know how to deal with that.  If I add an exclusion for
this site in squid I can get the weather data through, but this is not
really something I want to do and no doubt many other gnome users are
not in a position to modify their network proxy.

Gavin
