Windows Forum / Internet Explorer / General Topics / November 2007IE7 - Problem with Proxy Exceptions
Hello, since we upgraded to IE7 (German Version 7.0.5730.11) we have troubles with the User Authentication which is set to "Automatic login only in Intranet zone". Our Intranet zone is identified by following settings: - Include all local (intranet) sites not listed in other zones - Include all sites that bypass the proxy server - Include all network paths (UNCs) In the Local Area Network Settings following Proxy settings are enabled: - Bypass proxy server for local addresses In the advanced Proxy settings we have following Exception: - Do not use proxy server for addresses beginning with: *.ourdomain All settings above allowed us, when using IE6, to connect to our intranet site "http://intranet.ourdomain" without being asked for username and password. IE7 seems to ignore the Proxy Exceptions, and annoys us by authentication popups. I know there exists a workaround by adding the ebsite "http://intranet.ourdomain" to the local intranet zone, but I'm not lucky with this solution. Does anyone has an idea what's the real cause of the problem? Is it a bug in IE7?

Yes it's turned off, but it doesn't make a difference if I turn it on.. still the same behavour with IE7 Signatureregards, Robert Robert schrieb am Thu, 16 Nov 2006 08:42:01 -0800: > Yes it's turned off, but it doesn't make a difference if I turn it on.. It should be "off", the automatic detection is buggy. Can you please give the full and exact exception list? You can replace the main identifying string of the domain with something generic, but I would really like to see the suffix for instance. Once you are logged in to the Intranet server, what zone is shown on the status bar?

The status bar shows local intranet as zone. When I use http://ataweb.gg the status bar shows Internet and I'm asked for username and password. That's why I have the feeling IE7 ignores the exceptions. -- regards, Robert Robert schrieb am Fri, 17 Nov 2006 00:00:01 -0800: > Proxy exception: 10.*.*.*;*.gg AFAIK, IP addresses don't work at all as exceptions.

Ok, *does* adding the site to Local Intranet Sites solve the problem? If yes, then you hit an old problem that already existed in IE6. There's also a KB article about that. Sometimes IE will simply not recognize a site from the proxy exception list as being Local Intranet. You can try a few workarounds, maybe one of them works: ataweb.gg *ataweb.gg *.ataweb.gg *ataweg.gg* and so on. Also try using an FQDN for that server, "ataweb.gg" is only a domain name and does not qualify as an FQDN. The above exceptions would then fit for that FQDN. BTW: is "gg" the primary domain suffix of the PC you use as a client, so that the computername is something like thispc.ataweb.gg? (compare at My Computer/Computer Name) Kai SignatureHelpsites about Windows: http://www.mvps.org IE repair script: http://iefaq.info Hello Kai, thanks for your replies so far. To clarify: ataweb is the name of our intranet server. gg is our domain. > Ok, *does* adding the site to Local Intranet Sites solve the problem?

The second "workaround" is a proxy.pac file we use. We have no problems with the proxy exceptions in the proxy.pac file. > You can try a few workarounds, maybe one of them works: > > ataweb.gg > *ataweb.gg > *.ataweb.gg > *ataweg.gg* Doesn't work > BTW: is "gg" the primary domain suffix of the PC you use as a client, so that > the computername is something like thispc.ataweb.gg? (compare at My > Computer/Computer Name) My computer name is aw220070.gg, the domain is GG regards, Robert Hi, I had the same problems : I confirm that theres is a workaround by implementing a list of trusted sites in the Intranet Zone and I confirm too that theres is no problem when you configure these exceptions in a Proxy.pac script file. However, I still have a problem with authentication when using IE7 when I try to view (and my users WILL) videos on different sites like TF1.FR or ARTE-TV : the problem is that I have a proxy authentication as the stream is trying to begin I don"t have this problem in IE6 : I use native options in Authentication in the Internet Zone (Automatic connexion in Intranet Zone) and I add My proxy adress in the trusted sites of the intranet zone. In IE7 this workaround doesn't work. If you have any advice or idea ...... Thanx > Hello Kai, > [quoted text clipped - 26 lines] > > regards, Robert |
