[Grub-dev] how do i enter the proxy information in the c# client for windows?

[ab]

hi there,

the current c# client for windows
grubng-0.7.5.exe allows for entering a http proxy, or making use of the 
system proxy.

both settings dont work for me. the mono.exe (grub) process always 
connects directly to the inet.


the system settings (windows registry? probably internet-explorer 
settings) dont get used, and it would also seem nice to make use of 
firefox/mozilla settings if available on the target windows system.

anyways, in the manual proxy field i tried to enter ip-addresses or 
hostnames, and they get blocked by the application itself already, and 
then i tried to enter something like "http://proxy.hostname.local" and 
the port, or even "http://proxy.local:8080/" and without additional 
ports, and these url-types get accepted but still dont get used to 
connect and crawl the net.

what is the syntax for the manual proxy field, and how is this supposed 
to work? maybe some environment variables such as http_proxy with 
linux/un*x would be also a good source for proxy information.

thanks for any hints.
