====== Configuration Setting: proxy ======

DokuWiki needs to connect to the Internet for some features like RSS inclusion or [[:caching]] of external images. If your wiki server is behind a firewall it may be necessary to use a HTTP proxy. Use this to configure a Web-Proxy to use for outbound connections.

  * Type: Array
  * Default: no proxy is used
===== Keys =====

The following keys may be set:

| ''host'' | The IP or hostname of the proxy server to use |
| ''port'' | The port number of your proxy server eg. ''8080'' |
| ''user'' | If you need to authenticate on your Proxy set your username here |
| ''pass'' | If you need to authenticate on your Proxy set your password here --- //**note:** the password is stored in plain text// \\ the password maybe //obscured//((this is not meant to be security, simply to prevent casual revelation)) by being uuencoded. (Setting the password using the admin/config settings page will do this automatically) |
| ''ssl''  | If your Proxy uses SSL set this to ''1'' (very unlikely) |
| ''except''| regexp of URLs to exclude from proxy |
