Hello Alessandro...

That means for all the services that Connect uses, like Google Maps, Yahoo, RSS and Concursive, you would need the proxy setting. We'll add that in (or make the services optional), but in the meantime you could try the following and report back.

When tomcat starts up, you can specify additional Java System properties which configure the proxy. Does your authentication require a username/password? If so I have to research that.

Linux/Mac example (place in bin/catalina.sh):
export JAVA_OPTS="-Dhttp.proxyHost=cache.example.com -Dhttp.proxyPort=8080 -Dhttps.proxyHost=cache.example.com -Dhttps.proxyPort=443"

Windows:
Go into the Apache Tomcat configuration/service application and add the properties manually.

Please let me know how this goes.

Hi Matt,
yes my proxy requires username and password.
I attached a screenshot of the form in the installation process wich requires proxy specifications.
Do I have to setup the proxy in Tomcat? It seems not working...

Any suggestions?

There will be a 2.0.1 release with proxy username/password. While that will accommodate the concursive services initially, there are other services like Google API, Yahoo API and other SOAP services that I don't think this will fix.

So that I can understand better, what is generally the case for using proxies with username/pass?

In our company only a number of employees can access the internet. So the proxy uses username/password in order to block people without authorization. Moreover we cannot access the internet from more desks simultaneously using the same credential...
In the meantime I will try to install Connect on my personal laptop... So I will be prepared when 2.0.1 is released :-)

is there a way to bypass registration if i have already got a registration id.is there a way to contact customer care
