I am trying to have two applications bypass the proxy by adding
exception in IE. One address is subdomain.domain.com the other is
subdomain.domain.com/somesuffix. You would think that *.domain.com
would
do it but it only allows the exception with out the suffix
through. The
app that uses the url with a suffix still hits the proxy. Why is
this?
See the IE documentation on how to write exceptions. Not entirely sure
what syntax they use there..
Interesting. I just ran into this problem with content in one
directory that needed to be handled differently from the rest of the
content on the web server. I thought that I could handle this with a
shExpMatch(url, "string") function in the proxy.pac file.
Unfortunately, this doesn't work consistently as you run up against
Windows' default web proxy cacheing behaviour that does not allow
exceptions for a given web server or host. If the URL of the first
access to a given host results in a DIRECT being returned, IE will
use DIRECT for all content on the given host. If a PROXY is
returned, IE will use the proxy for all content on the specific host.
The last problem can be resolved but requires a Windows Registry
change to define "enableProxyResultsCache" and set its value to 0 to
disable the caching. I recommend that you search Microsoft's
Knowledge Base for the above string. I don't remember the exact
syntax and the article that I found had it wrong. :(
What can I do to get the same domain with a suffix and without to
bypass
the proxy? If I add them both to the exceptions in IE I get which
ever
one I list first bypassing the proxy and the other does not.
For full control write a PAC script instead of using the manual proxy
settings & exceptions.
