How to setup automatic proxy configuration via pac file windows server core r2

  • 772

I'm looking for the syntax to setup windows server core R2 to take its proxy configuration from a script(.pac file)

for example in my LAN settings dialog:

Automatic configuration
use automatic configuration script(checked) address http://foo.bar/proxy.pac (text box)

any thoughts on how I can set this netsh doesn't appear to support this unless I'm missing something.

  1. You can simply export registry based on this article:

    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/819961/EN-US

    Here is simple script

    REGEDIT /e c:\proxysetup.reg "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings"

    After that you may remove rest of file content after section

    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings]

  2. netsh winhttp

    I'd use netsh winhttp import proxy - this should import from IE and take a PAC hopefully.
