As it's not been mentioned here ; it should support SOCKS proxies as well, despite the title of the ticket.
Lack of proxy support definitely harms the commercial potential of the service. U1 currently offers better value for smaller data volumes than Dropbox does, even if it's features are not as slick. But lack of proxy support means that I use Dropbox, and not U1. For bonus marks, if it supported PAC scripts (which Dropbox does not on Linux) and had an equivalently functional Windows client, I'd really consider moving to U1. I use PAC scripts to avoid having to reconfigure my proxy settings as I move between networks, but only a limited number of apps comprehend them. What Linux / GNOME / Ubuntu could really do with is a proxy API that you can call from everything AND supports PAC scripts (ie - the API takes care of running the PAC script and returning the proxy IP and port number, or even just a library that you ask for sockets that just handles the proxy details for you). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/387308 Title: HTTPS Proxy Support for file sync -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
