Title: Proxy http
Post by: ithernit on May 28, 2013, 05:24:19 pm

Hi, I am able to connect to the alt binz server, authentication is passed and I am able to do searches. But I can’t connect to my news server. I added the HTTP proxy setting, that’s how I was able to connect for authentication and searching. The university is running http proxy. I should probably add I used proxifier in the past, but my 30day trail has now passed :(

As it states in Setup > Connection > Proxy, the top box is for NNTP connections, and for that you need a SOCKS not a HTTP proxy.
