I can confirm that LibO doesn‘t understand scripts or IE settings. So I configured our proxy manually in the settings. Now when trying to access a weblink, LibO prompts me for credentials. Instead of entering them, ticking “use system credentials” let’s me access the web. Why is “use system credentials” not the default behavior? I think that the integrated authentication would work in most cases and only if not, LibO should prompt the user for his credentials. The next problem here: this setting can't be set in the options and so users have to tick it again each time they start LibO. To avoid that I decided to create a “proxy user” and stored its credentials in the settings for all users. On the first view it worked but then I noticed, that LibO for some weird reason doesn’t save this credentials for the proxy itself, but only for the accessed website and you have to re-enter it again and again. Please fix that ASAP because at the moment LibO is unsuitable for all environments running a webproxy. For now making integrated authentication as a default and saving the „use system credentials“ setting could be helpful.
