Subject: Disabling Proxy in Network Prefs Doesn't
I have a 10.3.9 OD setup with 10.4.11 clients. I needed to allow a
student access to the iTunes store to authorize that computer so she
could use some songs she has purchased in her class project. However,
if I log into that computer as a local admin, disable the proxy, the
computer is still using it. iTunes will not connect, and Safari still
checks as well. Is there another place where that setting is being
cached?

We actually had to place a rule in our proxy to allow all apple.com to go through with no autnetication.

Thanks Mike, for your response, but for some reason, that doesn't work either. The log on the proxy shows the machine trying phobos.apple.com and that it is allowed as an exempt URL, so it looks like the proxy is allowing it, yet the clients iTunes still cannot connect. Would you happen to know a tcpdump command that will allow me to zero in on iTunes network traffic?
Ultimately, what really has me confused is that disabling the proxy in the clients network settings does nothing. All traffic still goes to the proxy. Something isn't right. This occurs on all three clients I tested. --- Eric |
