How do I get Netscape to not use a SOCKS host for machines in my local domain?
I am running "Mozilla/3.01Gold (X11; I; Linux 2.0.27 i586)" on my Debian 1.2 box, which is on a network behind a (SOCKS 4) firewall. After I set "Options/Network Preferences/Proxies" to "Manual Proxy Configuration" and filled in the "SOCKS Host" field it had no problems getting through to the outside world. However, it goes through the SOCKS host even to contact local http servers. (This is a problem because the SOCKS host is in a different building to which I am connected with only 10Kbps pipe.) I set the "No Proxy for" field to the local domain name but this had no effect. "Mozilla/3.0Gold (WinNT; 1)", similarly set up to use the SOCKS host, connects to local http servers directly, even without an entry in the "No Proxy for" field.
