We have a tunnel all VPN so we have a proxy.pac file that is used to allow access to the world. This same proxy works fine for all machines except for this one. I cannot find any differences between mine and his. Same model, same OS, etc..
Specs
- Dell Latitude E6520
- Windows 7 Pro x64
- IE9
We have a proxy file hosted on a file server (so its not local), and I go into internet options, connections (tab), and hit LAN settings. I check "automatically detect" and "use automatic config script". I add the Url (http://myserver.mydomain/proxy.pac) and hit OK.
On my machine, I can now load google, yahoo, etc.. On his machine, i can't ping or access anything externally. Skype doesn't work, chrome doesn't work.
any ideas? I noticed that his system variables are off (command prompt does not open to Windows\system32). I wonder if that has something to do with it?
