IOS 5 Proxy settings

I'm using iphone configuration utility to create a profile for our enterprise wireless but the profile does not configure the manual proxy settings even when specified(specifiying proxy address, port number). When I install the profile on the device (via email) it will prompt for credentials to connect to the wireless but does not connect to safari since the proxy settings are set to off, instead of the manual config specified in the file. Anyone else experiencing this issue?
I'm looking to send users a pre-configured wireless profile so all they will need to do is enter their AD credentials when prompted to connect to wireless. I noticed that even if the credentials are stored in the proxy configuration Safari will still prompt the user to enter credentials each day since Apple appears not to pass the credentials through. While the user can manually configure this we are finding users are changing settings causing increased support calls so I'd like to install the certificate with password protection but need the proxy settings to be pre-defined.
I have tried this on several iPad 1 and 2's using 5.0 and 4.3.5 with no avail.

I am at a elementary school which purchased 400 iPod Touches. I tried using the iphone config to deliver the proxy settings. It will only place it on the iPod if I open up networks and tap on manual. The only thing that is placed in the iPod is half of the port number, no proxy information. If I have it off it won't place anything onto the iPod. I am using iphone config 3.4 and tried it with my iphone with iOS 5.0 and it places the proxy information in but it will not collect the IP address right away. It finally collects the information but then doesn't collect the client ID. I tried renewing the lease but still nothing. After going in and out of safari several times it finally will load up a page.

Is it possible to install a consumer app for mass usage that would alter the ios device proxy settings? Over the air not supervised. Can an app company use an MDM server to do this if the customer consents?

HI Chris,
Thanks for taking the time to reply.
Could you expand on your answer, which bit is very doubtful?
Also in your knowledge would Apple work with a company and license it if the software they were developing was desired by consumer demand?
Thanks

How do I set my MMS proxy settings on iOS 7.1?

I have an iPhone 4S, which has been upgraded to iOS 7.1. I'm on a pay-as-you-go carrier (Red Pocket Mobile) and have configured my iPhone for all other data situations with one exception: I cannot send Multimedia messages to people without iPhones.
Everywhere I look they say "Oh just edit your MMS Proxy settings" and then to do all this:
Enter the main menu.
Select "Settings".
Select "Cellular" and "Cellular Data Network".
Scroll to "MMS".
Scroll to and select "APN" and enter att.mvno.
Scroll to and select "MMSC" and enterhttp://mmsc.cingular.com.
Scroll to and select "MMS Proxy".
Enter 66.209.11.33 :80.
Press "Cellular" to complete.
Press the "Home" button to return to the main menu.
Your phone has been configured.
Note: Switch the phone off and on again
The problem with the above, and everwhere else you see it, is that they obviously are not familar with iOS 7.1. You cannot access your "Cellular Data Network" from "Cellular" nor can you edit any of the cellular settings or MMS settings as far as I can tell, or see. Can anyone help me with this? It's important for my work, and for my personal life.

That iPod touch model doesn’t have enough RAM to be updated past 6.1.6.

After iOS 4.3 Upgrade Proxy Settings only work with Personal Hotspot

After Upgrading my IPhone to the 4.3 Release. The Proxy Settings not working anymore. Only when I activate the Hotspot functionality the Proxy Settings are working.

I am having this same problem... Only with iPad 3 and update to iOS 7
It worked perfectly before. :(

IOS 5.1 or iPhone Configuration Profile 3.5 for Windows has not fixed the issue with apply Proxy Settings

iOS 5.1 or iPhone Configuration Profile 3.5 for Windows has not fixed the issue with apply Proxy Settings via a Configuration Profile. Has anyone else got the same issue? Are Mac users got this issue?

This seems to be working for me now but will keep monitoring it the next couple of times I use it to make sure its not a one time thing

IOS 5/iPad 2 proxy settings not being remembered

I recently upgraded one of my iPad 2's to iOS 5, but I seem to be having an issue the Wi-Fi connection in work. The wireless network has a hidden SSID and it requires some Manual proxy settings being put into the wireless config.
When I input the relevant information it seems to hold fine for a few seconds but when I go into Safari it prompts for an https:// proxy username and password, if I input the correct details it just prompts again and no matter how many times I input the correct information it still prompts for it over and over again, to the point that you just have to switch the wireless off to stop the message from flashing up.
I have an iPad 2 on iOS 4.3.5 and the same setting work perfectly fine on this iPad 2 but will not work on iOS 5.
I have even tried a Linksys Wireless Access Point plugged into the network with no hidden SSID etc and I still get the same thing on the iOS 5 iPad 2 it continually prompts for the proxy details, but the iOS 4.3.5 iPad2 works fine.
Is this a known glitch or am I just being a total idiot : ( ?

There are no work-arounds, there are no fixes, and no... updating to iOS 5.0.1 will not help you. This is broken and Apple needs to fix it. No "consumerisation" will not win, and our Network admin will NOT remove proxy authentication from the network to make it work. That's what Apple want me to do, and it's not happening. Here's the deal:
1. There is a difference between a HTTP proxy and a HTTPS proxy, of course, and Apple ONLY let you supply a configuration (using "Manual") for a HTTP connection. Not HTTPS. That's the problem.
2. As such, any request to a secure site (which a LOT of apps use, including Apple's own in-built ones) will fail. As soon as the connection for HTTPS is required, you will get an authentication prompt. The iPhone/iPad CAN NOT use the credentials assigned to the HTTP Proxy for the HTTPS Proxy... they are different. On a Mac (running OSX), these are definately two separate items you need to configure in the network settings and store in the KeyChain. Aple either need to write the "Manual" Proxy setting as both a HTTP and HTTPS connection (using the same KeyChain entry), or allow a HTTPS Proxy to also be specified. I favour the first option for simplicity - though it is not "standard".
3. In iOS4, Apple also supplied a "Manual" setting with a "HTTP Proxy" setting. The big difference in that case is that requests to HTTPS sites, which would require a HTTPS Proxy connection (which was not supported), were simply IGNORED or attempted to get the data using ANONYMOUS access... which in almost all enterprises with proxy servers is flat-out denied. In iOS4 your app would have a spinning wheel forever or would crash when trying to hit a HTTPS site for updates etc. In iOS4 more apps simply didn't work, but failed in a nice and quiet way. This has changed to "allowed" in iOS5, as it now is HTTPS aware and attempts to respond to Proxy auth challenges... but Apple have not provided a way to store a username and password for that connection, so you get an authentication box.
After I installed iOS5, I had my iPad on my desk all day but didn't get a chance to use it. That night I had about forty (40) of those prompts to cancel before I could use the device. Very frustrating. Even if you enter the correct username and password the million times it asks for it, you STILL get prompts... all the time. There is no good answer. If you're lucky enough to fluke a configuration and set of apps that only require HTTP connections, then you'll have no issues. That, from my experience, would be exceedingly rare.
There are three (3) possible answers here;
a) Get the network administrator to turn off authenticated proxy for the entire site. Good luck with that one.
b) Implement a solution using DHCP/TMG/Websense (or whatever your network and security products may be), or use a product like NetBox Blue. If you don't have a solution like NetBox, you'll need to set DHCP reservations for each device by MAC Address, then configure that IP Range to be "unauthenticated" in terms of the proxy server/firewall, and then specify the range an a set of categories for that new typ of conenction (if using web filtering). That will let you do MAC address authentication and bypass the authenticated proxy. This is what we've had to do - and it *****.
c) Wait for Apple to fix the issue. Like I said earlier, they'll either need to repurpose the "HTTP Proxy" option as "HTTP(S) Proxy" and allow HTTPS challenge responses to proxies via the one KeyChain item... or supply a second "HTTPS Proxy" option we can specify under "Manual". It's a fault in their software. To be honest... I preferred it when HTTPS traffic was just blocked (as in iOS4).

IOS 6 config profile bug: removing profile with APN proxy leaves proxy settings behind

Has anyone noticed this problem on iOS 6: if you install a configuration profile with APN proxy settings and then remove it, the proxy settings themselves stay in the device. The profile itself is removed but the proxy settings are still there. This was never the case before. When the profile is removed it is expected that the proxy settngs (inside the profile) will be gone too.
The only workaround I have been able to find is to do a Network Reset following the profile removal. This is major and needs to be fixed
If you have seen this problem, have you found another workaround?

Can you please explain this app rejection? The app can always launch Safari to a URL that contains the profile and install that way. Is there another way for an app to install a configuration profile? are there APIs for that?
I, personally, still dont get this. It seems so obvious. I wish someone could tell me from Apple whether this is done by design.

Exchange 2010 to 2013 Migration: Authentication/Proxy Settings Issue

I'm in the final stages of preparing for our Exchange 2010 to 2013 migration. I'm noticing minor authentication issues on mobile devices (android & ios) and proxy setting issues with Outlook that require user intervention. In an effort to make the migration
as smooth as possible for our internal users, I'd like to get these settings ironed out before starting the migration.
Symptoms:
Outlook - I'm aware that internal Outlook usage has changed its connection protocol from RCP/TCP to RCP/HTTP, but it appears that Outlook isn't updating its settings in the "Microsoft Exchange Proxy Settings" after a users mailbox has been migrated
from 2010 to 2013. Currently, 2010 users with Outlook 2013 have the following settings configured in Outlook's Exchange Proxy Settings:
URL to connect to my proxy server for Exchange: webmail.domain.com
Connect using SSL only: Checked
Only connect to proxy servers that have this principal name in their certificates: Unchecked
On fast networks, connect using HTTP first, then connect using TCP/IP: Unchecked
On slow networks, connect using HTTP first, then connect using TCP/IP: Checked
After migrating a user's mailbox from 2010 to 2013, the above settings remain the same in Outlook and their client disconnects from Exchange and isn't able to reconnect. After manually enabling the checkbox for "On fast networks, connect using HTTP
first, then connect using TCP/IP", Outlook clients are able to connect to Exchange via their newly migrated mailbox.
Is there a way to automatically updating these 2 proxy settings in Outlook during the migration instead of having to manually change each user's configuration in Outlook?
Android & iOS - Currently, users on Android & iOS with Exchange 2010 mailboxes have the following configuration:
domain: blank
username: their AD username
server: webmail.domain.com
After migrating a mobile users mailbox from 2010 to 2013, neither OS (Android or iOS) is able to connect due to an authentication failure. On iOS, if I manually change the domain from blank to my company's domain, authentication succeeds and their 2013 mailbox
begins to update. On Android, the option to change the domain name from null is grayed out, requiring the user to delete the Exchange profile and re-add it with the domain name intact. Is there a way to configure Exchange 2013 to not require the domain name
for mobile users in the same way that it's been working for us with Exchange 2010?
Please let me know if you require cmdlet print outs of my virtual directories to help troubleshoot the issue.

Hi,
Generally, when the user mailbox is moved from Exchange 2010 to Exchange 2013, the Autodiscover service would detect the changes and update the new configuration automatically.
Please make sure the autodiscover service in your new Exchange 2013 is configured correctly. We can create a new mailbox in Exchange 2013 and check whether the new Exchange 2013 user can setup account successfully in Outlook or not. If the new user works
fine, it indicates the autodiscover service in Exchange 2013 should be proper for internal user.
Please restart the following Exchange service to have a try:
Microsoft Exchange RPC Client Access
Microsoft Exchange Mailbox Replication
Restart IIS service by running IISReset in a Command Prompt window.
Then check whether the Outlook client can connect to Exchange 2013 or not.
As for Android & iOS issue, I suggest we can ask a question in ActiveSync forum for more suggestion:

Firefox suddenly stopped opening webpages, while other browser work properly. I checked Proxy settings and everything that is mentioned in the central help page, but still no solution found...

In addition, i tried to re-install Firefox many times, without a result. In the time these lines are written, I am using Google Chrome to surf the web.
Neither proxy settings, nor the true/false ipV6 values helped.
The '''"symptoms"''' are as following:
--> The programm itself starts correctly, at usual speed, with no crashes or error messages to pop-up.
--> No page is displayed, neither the home page, nor any other one. I only see a blank white page.
-->The name of the starting tab, as of any other new tab I try to open is "(Untitled)"
-->There is no probability of errors in the Internet Line, because I am using it right now, running Chrome.
-->The full scan results are totally clean, using Panda Internet Security 2011, activated and updated.
-->The Error Console shows the following messages:

These Error messages appear in the Error Console of the just now downloaded Firefox 4.0. In the previous version, 3.6.12, before removing it, I noticed two more error messages in the error console, like the two last as listed above: With the nema ERROR.
I am forced now to use Chrome, and I dislike that!
Some could suspect that Google has sabbotaged firefox to get its popularity by forcing users to change browsing programms by giving them a hidden worm..?? :P
Please, help me out anyone with good will and strong tech-knowledge.
Tasos!

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See [[Basic Troubleshooting#Make_a_new_profile|Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile]]
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)

How can I have proxy settings stay for multiple users on an educational network?

Hi,
I want to be able to have mutlple users log onto machines and haave proxy settings already set in preferences. I have tried by copying the Mozilla folder in to the All users location and does not help.
Each user logs onto a computer with a mandatory or Roaming account depending on account security. Settings for firefox are picked up from their Documents and settings folder when they log on (It is created when they log on for the first time)
Is there a way to pull across proxy settings for a new user? Ussually it would be a case of just sticking it in All Users.
Thanks

A possibility is to create a file user.js and place that file in the default template location (defaults\pref) in the Firefox program folder.
If you don't want users to change the proxy (connection) settings then you can also lock the prefs or set a different default value.
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locking_preferences
You can use these calls in mozilla.cfg to set or lock a pref:
defaultPref(); // set new default value
pref(); // set pref, but allow changes
lockPref(); // lock pref, disallow changes

How to use proxy settings for one website

Hello,
I have to access the only one website using Proxy settings and for others I don't need proxy to access. Is there a way to configure the internet settings to allow one website using Proxy... Please advise. Thanks!

I am also getting this "error". The printer (8500 A910) connected to the web well enough that it went out and supposedly downloaded a new update, but then it was supposed to print a page showing the email address, but did not.
So I go in and try to set up the eprint, and it tells me it cannot connect to the sever and I'll need to enter a proxy address and port number. But my ISP's cable modems do NOT have any static IP address nor do they provide any sort of proxy service. Everything works just fine with "automatic discovery" (DHCP) for every computer in the house. No problems there.
So, since that's the case, of course I cannot look up some proxy address and port number in my web browser because they're all set up for "automatically detect settings".
What's baffling is that the printer connected to something at HP to download the "update", and it went through a process that appeared to be what I'd expect it to do if it was updating its firmware. But it won't connect to whatever it's supposed to connect to to have an email address assigned.
Does HP supply a proxy server? If so, what's its IP address or URL, and what port should a person set the printer to try to use?
UPDATE:
It appears that the HP site must have just been "down" for about six or seven hours while I was trying to get the printer to connect because it now connected and I got an email address asigned without needing to have any "proxy" stuff set up at all. It's a shame that the printer does not simply report "HP Site down - try again later" instead of reporting that you need to use a proxy when that's impossible.
"Now, on to the next problem which is that my emails to the assigned address are all bouncing with a "550 5.7.1 Command rejected" error!

You could try the Dell site, but I doublt if they will have a driver for Solaris, Linux maybe but not Solaris. Otherwise try the DriverGuide web site. http://www.driverguide.com/
You could also try installing OpenSolaris if you don't specifically need Solaris 10. Better chance that OpenSolaris will support the NIC.

Proxy Settings Re-Appear after Reboot in Registry Post Malware Clean (Windows 8.1 x64)

Hey Guys -
My main system at home hosts many different things for me. Because I'm an idiot and had protection disabled, I caught some malware which I cleaned off soon
afterwards. The malware was listed as Trojan.Generic.KD or something similar. It had enabled Proxy and set it to 127.0.0.1:58054. I ran Malwarebytes, Spybot, then ExecuteIt to clean the malware off and currently the scans from all 3 apps
come back clean. I also had to manually disable proxy via IE settings.
I have one specific app which for whatever reason will use Proxy settings if they are there over anything else and doesn't offer and configuration to disable it.
Even though proxy is disabled (and cleared) in IE, this app still doesn't work and I still seemingly get redirected to ads in Chrome sometimes. The log file of the app showed it was trying to connect through 127.0.0.1:58054. The thing is,
IE Settings still show Proxy disabled!
The Issue
I checked many things are read a few articles to try to fix this including different Windows 8.1 settings, local Group Policy, startup items, checking Run keys
in HKLM and HKCU for "out of place" entries, and more. Finally, I opened the registry and did s keyword search for ":58054" and found one key with it. I cleared out all of the data and set the EnableProxy string from "1"
to "0", rebooted, and tried again but the app still failed with the same log message. I went back into the registry and found out that the strings I changed had all been changed back! Below is the key / strings I'm talking about which
are located in HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet
Settings. It's odd because I usually deal with HKLM and HKCU and don't think I've ever worked in ".DEFAULT" on any system ever before.
I know that a full OS re-install is suggested - and I actually do it every 3-4 months religiously - but - I currently don't have the time for the full day it
takes to perform due to how many things it hosts.
Any ideas on how I can get this to stop coming back after each restart until I can perform the re-install? Below are the system specs. Thanks!
System Specs
- Intel i7-3770k / 16gb RAM
- x3 partitions 256gb SSD for OS & Apps / 24tb Disk Pool for Storage / 500gb Hybrid drive for App installs
- Windows 8.1 Update 1 x64 (Fully Patched)
Thanks again!

Hi,
.default is the profile for the Local System account and is an alias for
HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-18, Consequently, settings in HKEY_USERS\.Default are used by programs and services that run as Local System.
In addition to HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet
Settings, please also check HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-18\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet
Settings and HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet
Settings, make sure all proxy server disabled, then press F5 to refresh registry, check the application, if the issue disappears, the the registry entry is the culprit. Then please reboot the PC, if the issue appears again, the virus is not cleared in your
system. In this case, please try other virus clean program if possible, meanwhile, check if there're unknown software installed in your system.

How Can I pre-configure the proxy settings in Acrobat 8?

We use a proxy server to authenticate users and it's causing a problem for our e-licensing. Is there a place to pre-configure the proxy settings / login and password for the e-licensing to happen quietly so our users don't have to see it?

Have you searched the forum for proxy? I do not have an answer, but this has been discussed before. I am not sure there is an answer in the discussions, but it is worth a try. There is likely a knowledgebase article on the issue also. Good luck.

Steps to apply Proxy settings for all Server in a specific OU using Group Policy ?

People,
I have several terminal server (2008 R2) running as RDSH in an OU called Terminal Servers.
So how can I create the GPO setting to make sure that everyone who login to this terminal server will be getting the proxy settings automatically to proxy.domain.com on port 3128 ?
I've created the GP object and then link it directly to the Terminal Servers OU using the following options:
User Configuration (Enabled) > Policies > Windows Settings > Internet Explorer Maintenance >
Connection/Proxy Settings > Enable proxy settings
But somehow when I login as myself and DOMAIN\Administrator the proxy settings in the IE11 is still unchecked with the old Proxy value and sometimes blank in some servers.

User policies apply to user objects - the servers will ignore them, and
as long as there is no user in your terminal servers OU, no one will get
this setting.
Link your policy to the OUs where the users are, then use item level
targeting to filter for a security group you create for this purpose,
and add all your terminal servers to this group. Don't forget to reboot
the servers after changing group memberships...
Greetings/Grüße,
Martin
