Not supporting proxies #117

Open ghost opened 9 years ago

ghost commented 9 years ago

I've seen that it isn't supporting proxies ( The cyphertite service encountered an error ) It's totally unacceptable for me, as I must work behind a proxy. I'm sad I have to leave this possibility to try the software.

How are you configuring proxies?

Issue #100 relates to adding proxy and IP version control support to the product, and is presently flagged as an "enhancement". I am forcing connections on the host through a SOCKS proxy at present, and when the service is working (it isn't right now), it gives better performance than accessing the service directly

Just the usual way in the windows settings. I couldn't find any option to set manually proxy in this software. Did I miss something?

I doubt Cyphertite supports Windows proxy configurations (most software on Windows doesn't either). There are no settings I could find that relate to proxies, so I am using a Linux system to force data through a SOCKS proxy. You can do the same on Windows using software like ProxyCap (http://www.proxycap.com/).

Quite funny, but I have to say that most software supports inbuilt settings. Somehow proxycap never worked for me, ended up having no internet connection at all :) I'll give it another shot, but I lost my faith in it :)
