Our "wpad.dat" is actually a PHP script which tests that the "official" proxy (per client subnet) is actually working (with caching of the results for performance reasons of course), if not it flicks them off to another site's proxy server. Much better than trying to do dynamic DNS tricks with a local HAproxy. ie if you have actually lost local Internet access due to an ISP outage, HAproxy isn't going to help. But if WPAD knows that a WAN-connected proxy is still working - why not point your users at that instead We've been doing this for 10+ years, 99% of the time it's never needed, but when it's needed, it works :-) -- Cheers Jason Haar Corporate Information Security Manager, Trimble Navigation Ltd.
