Around here we've still got MSIE 5 and 6 on some boxes, and they accept a proxy without a /n after it. But I just noticed that mine (according to the rules I read on one or three websites) doesn't use local-wpad, mine's like this: option wpad-curl code 252 = text; option wpad-curl "http://proxy.example.com/wpad.dat";; I also notice that despite Microsoft recommending that technique, none of their browsers pay any attention to DHCP supplied proxy addresses. They blandly look for /wpad.dat on the local webserver (a webserver with the same domain name as itself, or a proxy sub-domain, or the same subnet). Looks like time for some more experimenting. :-\ -- (Currently running FC4, occasionally trying FC5.) Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
