Proxy Setting for Gixen Desktop Manager

[Guest]

Hi,

Is it possible to set the proxy setting for connecting to Gixen server via Gixen Desktop Manager? Does Gixen Desktop Manager use proxy setting in IE?
I don't see it in the Settings > Preferences.
My network does not allow me to connect to the Internet without proxy.

Please advise.
Thank you.

What operating system are you running?

If it is some type of Windows, are you allowed to use the 'proxycfg' and/or 'netsh' commands to configure the proxy settings?

GDM is using SSL anyway, so HTTP proxy setting is irrelevant.

If you can see https://www.gixen.com in your browser, GDM should work.

Thank you for the reply.

Yes, what mario said is correct.
I tried to download and run GDM on my laptop,
and GDM can successfully connect to the server.
Thank you for the valuable information.
I never know before that SSL does not need proxy setting.

Have a nice day.

Not only that it does not need it, SSL can't really work through a proxy, or at least not in a meaningful way, as such proxy wouldn't be able to modify, read, or filter anything in such a connection, as it's encrypted.

Yes, stupid me, I was getting confused between the Domain Name Server and a Proxy server.
