to know the proxy address?

Post by saumya »

Hi all,
is it possible to know the ipaddress of the proxy server?
WEll let me explain in detail.I am one of the many nodes connected to a proxy(i do not know behind the scene, how many proxies are there).WE all are in one company and connect to the net through that proxy.I want to bypass the proxy and connect directly to net is it possible?I am using winXP and in internet lan settings it show use the automatic proxy configuration script and below that the address to the script.
i am running PHP at my machine only.Is it possible for me to run a script to find the proxy ip address from my machine or something which will get me out of the gate and connect to internet directly.
Thanks

Btw, it's also possible they use a "transparent" proxy and/or cache. No way to bypass these.
