Good point; I usally see that as part of installation.

Standard Java HTTP proxy rules should apply - this is a normal java applet.

-Dhttp.proxyHost (default:<none>)
-Dhttp.proxyPort (default:80 if http.proxyHost specified)
-Dhttp.nonProxyHosts (default:<none>)

This information can be entered via eclipse.exe -vmargs

But it would be much nicer to include them in the config.ini
(Hey wait that is probably why one-click installers usually collect this information.)

For now I will enter this information in as
a commented out entry in our config.ini file.

Admittedly the long term solution should be to centralize this knowledge so both WMS/WFS can find it when making requests.
