Direct access when not behind a enterprise proxy

Direct access when not behind a enterprise proxy

luisalves00 opened this issue 6 years ago · comments

Is it possible to act as final proxy and do direct access when not behind a enterprise proxy? i.e. when I work from home I keep using the proxy-login-automator but withour relaying to the enterprise http(s) proxy.

hi, thank you for suggestion. I understand your situation. However it is not easy to determine whether it should enable or disable proxy, so I have no plan to implement this feature. Thank you anyway.

It has to be a switch like -direct or -skip-proxy, i.e. a manual feature. I don't think you can magically know that you are at home. Currently I have a script: ubuntu@ubuntu-vb:~$ proxy -o start Password: ****** Starting proxy... Proxy is running... the idea is to have proxy -o start -direct, but I want to keep using proxy-login-automator as all application use the local proxy. Not sure but I think this also can be done with a PAC file, but I think proxy-login-automator cannot receive one as a parameter. Regards

It think that what you propose here #14 (comment) would do the trick...but is overwhelming.

Oh, this seems need this tool return a "DIRECT" to browser so that they know then connect to target web site directly, so this is exactly the PAC mode, and it turns out that you want "local PAC file", this is the second requests of local PAC file, I will consider to implement it next time when I modify this tool, but I am sorry that I have no time now.
