Re: 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

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?

I have seen a similar issue. Try creating a new location with no proxy configured. I am not really sure if this is a bug or not.....it certainly looks like one.

Hope this helps.

The issue turned out to be a problem with 10.3 admin tools versus 10.4. I must have briefly futzed around with computer preferences using 10.4 admin tools on the 10.3 server. The 10.4 tools have an option to set the proxy. It doesn't show up in the 10.3 tools, which I now use exclusively on the 10.3 server.

This came about because when 10.4 came out, the word was that you could use 10.4 tools to admin 10.3 server, just that some features would be grayed out. It caused other problems, so I didn't use it like that for very long.

Anyway, removing that machine pref. with the 10.4 tools took care of it.
