I apologize if this is a simplistic question, I am not familiar with this kind of thing.
I am trying to determine my proxy server ip and port number in order to use a google calendar syncing program. I downloaded the proxy.pac file using google chrome. The last line reads:
return "PROXY proxyhost:1081";
I believe that means the port number is 1081, but for the proxy server, I was expecting something with the format "proxy.example.com" Any advice?
Thank you
Answer
Are you using the Windows operating system?
You can press Win+R, input "cmd" in the run box, you will get the "command Prompt", then input the following command and press Enter.
command 1
ipconfig /all | find /i "Dns Suffix"
it will show something like this.
Primary Dns Suffix . . . . . . . : xxx.xxx.xxx
command 2
ping proxyhost
it will show something like this.
Pinging proxyhost.xxx.xxx.xxx [yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy] with 32 bytes of data: Reply from yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy: bytes=32 time=1ms TTL=60
Then maybe "proxyhost.xxx.xxx.xxx" is what you want.
