Re: EGuide with proxy servers

I've looked through the admin guide for eguide 4 (among other places) and can't find any reference to proxy servers. Does EG support a configuration with a proxy server between the server and EG?

TIA

No, EG does not support anything special for proxy servers. EG uses the SAS Integration Technologies client, which communicates at the TCP socket layer with the server hosts. If you have a way to redirect ports/traffic at that layer, it might work.
