OO.org 1.1 rc solaris sparc build 'h' Launch OO.org, under tools, options internet set the proxy setting to e.g. proxy.uk.sun.com from the command line issue a pkill -SEGV soffice.bin. OO.org crashes and a bug report tool launches. Select Next, options -note that the proxy setting made in OO.org (under tools/options) is not enabled in the bug report tool. It would be good if it was.
Hi Hennes, Joost is on vacation so I forward this issue to. Is this really an enhancement, so reassing to BH.
This is by design. For OOo 2.0 there's a chance to fix this.
Component set. Accepted.

JA: as discussed with HRO I retarget this issue to "later"
Please include Proxy Authentication support for the bug report tool, not just copying the Proxy setting in OO.org. Issue 25547 was regarding the above and it was closed as duplicate of 16602, but I didn't see anything relating to authenticated proxies in here. So just to be sure, I added the request as a comment. Thanks!!
This issue is still here in OpenOffice 2.0B2 on Windows XP. Even having a pop-up a dialog asking for the username and password would be an acceptable work around. Many corporate world users need this kind of access. I am not a programmer so am not sure how much work it requires, but it might be critical for integration for larger corporations to use this wonderful product.
sb: Please take over.
