I am having difficulties with the alias in the IncludeExclude list.
They work fine in Firefox, but not in any other IE based browsers I try. Seems they hit the google search in line 253 first:

# Google Search
http://www.google.[^/]+/(intl/[^/]+/(^?)|search\?|webhp|(^?))

And I can't figure out why.

It can't be the filteres. Even with a clean Proxo with the plain config they dont work for me.


solved:

And another strange thing - I configure Proxo to use port 8081 and the browsers find it on port 8080. I am puzzled about this too, and it appeared when i downloaded a fresh proxo some time ago.

Not sure if that "solved:" also addresses the alias problem.

If not: Normally you should add your personal entries to the user list, IncludeExclude-U. That also avoids the risk of user entries overriding default ones and vice versa.

There's a section for user aliases in IncludeExclude-U:
Quote:## aliases: start with dot
##
## example:
## .nfo/ $JUMP(http://local.ptron/.pinfo/)


The default aliases in the general list are:
Quote:.(
l/ $JUMP(http://groups.yahoo.com/group/prox-list/messages/)
|p/ $JUMP(http://prxbx.com/forums/)
|pi/ $JUMP(http://www.proxomitron.info/)
|nfo/ $JUMP(http://local.ptron/.pinfo/)
|bl/ $JUMP(http://local.ptron/.pinfo/lists/)
|ul/ $JUMP(http://local.ptron/.pinfo/urls/)
|acr/(\3 &$JUMP(http://www.acronymfinder.com/af-query.asp?String=exact&Acronym=\3))
|wth/(\3 &$JUMP(http://www.m-w.com/cgi-bin/thesaurus?book=Thesaurus&va=\3))
|cache/(\3 &$JUMP(http://www.google.com/search?q=cache:\3))
)


edit: Oh, and dot aliases apparently aren't supposed to work in IE 7/8 plain/clones at all, due to MS inventing something similar to what Squid proxy is calling "DOT security".

Ahh so I don't have to try that any more then. I spent a couple of hours on the issue, which can't be solved LOL
I know about the IncludeExclude-U list, but (of course) the general list did not work either (when IE has something like that. It sure puzzled me a long time.

The problem that is solved was the port thing. That was only differences in the configs where Proxomitron changed the port when I loaded different configs, and I did not check after loading which port it now used.

Thanks for the info. Now I can put myself to rest this mid-summer evening ;-)

I will now try ProxRocks' idea :-)
