Well this was fun… All the examples of how to connect through a proxy from SharePoint are missing a crucial piece of information!

1<system.net>
2   <defaultProxy>
3      <proxy usesystemdefault = "false" proxyaddress="http://proxyservername" bypassonlocal="true" />
4   </defaultProxy>
5</system.net>

This is the accepted route, with an exception to e added to the proxy to use anonymous authentication…

But is you use:

1<defaultProxy useDefaultCredentials="true">
2  <proxy usesystemdefault="false" proxyaddress=http://proxyservername" bypassonlocal="true" />
3  <bypasslist>
4    <add address="[a-z]+.domain.biz" />
5    <add address="[a-z]+.domain2.biz" />
6  </bypasslist>
7</defaultProxy>

The required bit of which is the useDefaultCredentials parameter that passes the logged on users credentials on to the proxy server.

Proxy server settings for SharePoint 2007 Now all I need to do is get the double-hop authentication to work…
