# Retrieve Information through a Proxy Server

If the connector is installed on a machine that is behind a proxy server, use one of the following procedures to configure the connector so that it can reach the Web.

To configure the proxy server to use by host name and port

1. In the configuration file, add the following parameters to your fetch task:

   `ProxyHost` | The host name or IP address of the proxy server to use.
   `ProxyPort` | The port of the proxy server to use.
   `ProxyUser` | The user name to use to authenticate with the proxy server.
   `ProxyPassword` | The password to use to authenticate with the proxy server.

   For example:

       [MyTask]
       ...
       ProxyHost=10.0.0.1
       ProxyPort=80
       ProxyUser=username
       ProxyPassword=password

2. Save and close the configuration file.

To configure the proxy server to use with a proxy automatic configuration script

1. In the configuration file, add one of the following parameters to your fetch task (if you set both, the connector uses `ProxyAutoConfigurationUrl` and ignores `ProxyAutoConfigurationFile`):

   `ProxyAutoConfigurationUrl` | The URL of a proxy automatic configuration script, accessible from the connector machine, that specifies the proxy settings to use for accessing the Web.
   `ProxyAutoConfigurationFile` | The path to a proxy automatic configuration script, located on the connector machine, that specifies the proxy settings to use for accessing the Web. Specify an absolute path or a path relative to the connector.

   For example:

   `ProxyAutoConfigurationUrl=http://proxy.domain.com/proxy.pac`

   or

       ProxyAutoConfigurationFile=proxy.pac

2. Save and close the configuration file.
