Hi Patricia, I've never used a proxy auto-config (PAC) method for proxying anything before. The PAC is defined as "...Proxy auto-configuration (PAC): Specify the URL for a PAC file with a JavaScript function that determines the appropriate proxy for each URL. This method is more suitable for laptop users who need several different proxy configurations, or complex corporate setups with many different proxies." Right now, the public guidance for using Nutch with a proxy goes as far as the following tutorial https://wiki.apache.org/nutch/SetupProxyForNutch Right now, Nutch does not support the reading of PAC files... I think you would need to add this functionality. Lewis
