Comments on: Configuration Http Proxies in WCF http://kennyw.com/indigo/106 Kenny Wolf's Thoughts of the Moment Tue, 06 Jan 2009 04:56:09 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.2.2 By: Kenny http://kennyw.com/indigo/106#comment-101274 Kenny Sat, 03 May 2008 18:16:42 +0000 http://kennyw.com/indigo/106#comment-101274 If your IE settings are correct for hitting the terra server, then you shouldn't need any specific WCF proxy settings. The default of "UseDefaultWebProxy = true" will simply use the settings from IE by default If your IE settings are correct for hitting the terra server, then you shouldn’t need any specific WCF proxy settings.

However I am behind a corporate ISA firewall/proxy that requires authentication. I can surf the web with IE just fine so my default proxy settings are OK. but the following app.config settings still fail with: (407) Proxy Authentication Required ( The ISA Server requires authorization to fulfill the request. Access to the Web Proxy filter is denied). The settings are the auto-generated ones with proxyCredentialType="Windows". I also added the impersonate bit just in case - not sure if it's relevant though. I assume I am not setting the proxy credentials correctly and would appreciate any pointers on how to do this...

As a result, it’s pretty straightforward to configure your proxy credentials. I think what trips people up is that we don’t have a separate “ProxyCredentials” object. Rather, both the proxy authentication and the ultimate server authentication access credentials from the same location (such as ChannelFactory.Credentials).

If you have the default settings then you will use what's in IE. Otherwise you need to remember to set defaultWebProxy=false as well as setting proxyAddress="http://myProxy" from within your config on the basicHttpBinding or wsHttpBinding.

I'll take a look at your code. Hmm, we’ve verified these settings in many different configurations. I’ll take a look at your code.
