proxy pac

I am using dynatrace ajax edition and it requires an proxy server and password to connect to dynatrace server.

The problem is I ONLY have the .pac file URL that we use at work.

Is it possible to know which proxy server and port my requests resolve to so that I can provide the proxy server name and password directly?

I have checked few links in the stackoverflow community but they do not seem to answer this question.
