Support proxy configuration documentation #87

Closed jeremylcarter closed 7 years ago

jeremylcarter commented 7 years ago

Currently to support a proxy I am using a config file such as Aerial.exe.config. If you are using the scr version you will also need Aerial.scr.config

Here is an example configuration file that allows overrides the Proxy set by WebClient.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<configuration>
     <system.net>
      <defaultProxy enabled="true">
          <proxy proxyaddress="http://127.0.0.1:3128" />
     </defaultProxy>
  </system.net>
</configuration>

Would it be possible to add this to the documentation? If you are behind a proxy some users will not know how to configure this.

Great suggestion. There may be passwords and usernames, or are they defaulted on your setup?

Strangely we are behind a corporate proxy and the screensaver just works okay. Usually I have to jump through hoops to get anything to work.

Just mentioning this to point out that it works with some proxies.
