Hey all,

New to the tool. I was wondering if the tool has the ability to run as a scheduled task? It would be nice to setup the option to do the activity during a lower I/O intensive time frame, without having to be around to manually do it. I just wanted to check before I actually use the product.

Thanks,

I saw a previous comment about the 407 Proxy error when trying to enable the plugin but no real resolution. Our corporate policy prevents me from altering those proxy settings,

so I would really appreciate any information on what this plugin is trying to do, or how I might be able to work around or resolve this message.

Thx!

Also getting the following error when attempting to enable the plugin:

The remote server returned an error: (407) Proxy Authentication Required.

Disabling proxy settings is not possible in some environments, mine is one of them.

okay so no disabling proxy.
have you tried bypassing the proxy for local addresses and/or using proxy exceptions?
the key point in my situation was that the proxy setting from ie were being used by either the plugin or the viclient.
I would find a way to bypass the proxy limitations of my network, rather than get a developer to change the way they determine proxy conguration.

With group policies enabled, this is not possible.

If you're stuck using a proxy server, then use SSH Tunneling to redirect local traffic through your firewall. If only 80/443 ports are allowed out, then SSH to the external server through either port by having the external server listen on one of those ports. Viola!

The problem is you cannot enable the plugin. As soon as you check the Enabled checkbox you get the error.
