Re: Can't change proxy host address

  Don,

  I started WDSc with a new workspace, WORKSPACE 2.  Then I went to Window;
  Preferences; Install/Update, checked Enable HTTP proxy connection and set
  up the proxy server just like my coworker.

  I went to Help; Software Updates: New Updates. It dies almost immediately
  with "Network connection problem encountered during the search".  The
  detal button yields a lot of info, the start of which I have included
  below.

  There is no .log file that I can find.  I looked in .metadata in
  WORKSPACE2 because there is a .log file in .metadata in WORKSPACE.
