Configuring Proxy Authentication
Shinydrive can be configured to support two types of proxy settings:
Client side
Server side
Server Side Proxy
Shinydrive is hosted by Apache Tomcat server. To configure Tomcat server to handle a proxy, please review instructions at https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-8.5-doc/proxy-howto.html.
Client Side Proxy
Shinydrive support proxy authentication for remote access from the Shinydrive Client.
In Windows Explorer, navigate to C:\Program Files\Shinydrive.
With a plain text editor (for example, Notepad++), open Shinydrive.exe.config.
Insert the following into the <configuration> section:
CODE<system.net> <defaultProxy useDefaultCredentials="false"> <proxy usesystemdefault="true" proxyaddress="http://[your proxy address:port number]" bypassonlocal="false" /> </defaultProxy> </system.net>
Save your changes.
If the proxy server is inside a firewall, set useDefaultCredentials to “true”, to pass the proxy authentication before connecting to the Shinydrive server.
The defaultProxy will use the defaults from the browser proxy settings.
