Proxies for safari
Authored by: jeff Allred on Sat, Feb 23 2008 at 6:23PM PST
I am very new to the MAC, and not a programmer. I find it annoying in Safari to have to choose change settings for my proxies and choose HTTP and HTTPS (as well as others) in the select proxy server to configure when I am at work and then uncheck them when I am home or I cannot get on the internet. Is there a way to do this automatically?

Yes there is.

I use, for the same exact need, a small utility called Marco Polo (http://www.symonds.id.au/marcopolo/) which switches automatically between network contexts (they need to be created first) based on rules.
It can do many other things as well.

HTH ;-))
