proxy error while installing AS connector

Hi,

 

I am installing the latest version of the AS connector for my client (who has a proxy) and get the following error: 

 

"The remote server returned an error: (407) Proxy Authentication Required."

 

According to this link (https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/fe829f82-85df-4a20-b7e0-548d886b0fe4/the-remote-se... this is a kwown issue.

 

Can any of you confirm that this is still an issue or if not how I can address this problem? I already tried to add config files likes this to no avail

 

<system.net>
<defaultProxy useDefaultCredentials="true">
<proxy proxyaddress="myclientsinternetaddres:8080" bypassonlocal="true" />
</defaultProxy>
</system.net>

Regards,

Arnoud

Here are notes I picked up somewhere along the way. I just did this install on a very restricted environment that uses proxies as well, and we had no issues when opening the single port 443.

 

This applies equally to DMG, AS Connector and Personal Gateway (as they all use the same technology)

1) No incoming ports need to be opened.
2) Outbound ports 5672, 9350-9354 and 443 will be tried. All code paths fallback on attempting 443,
so if you want to only open a single outbound port 443 will work (though the other ports will be tried first,
so there would be some additional latency)
