I implemented WPAD at home - works nicely.

All you need is your internal DNS server to resolve 
wpad.yourinternal.local   to an IP

Then the browser gets    http://wpad.yourinternal.local/wpad.dat    (if 
its IE) or   http://wpad.yourinternal.local/proxy.pac    (if its 
anything else)    And these two files are identical javascript anyway.
