External RSS Feeds not working because you're behind a Proxy Server?
You're in luck, try configuring RSS feeds to work through your Proxy Server by setting the following system properties:
http.proxyHost = <proxy host>
http.proxyPort = <proxy port>
... and if your server requires authentication, you can specify a username/password with these additional properties:
http.proxyUsername
http.proxyPassword
* Note: currently only supports a single - global - proxy server *
There are also JVM parameters: http.proxyHost and http.proxyPort indicate the proxy server and port that the http protocol handler will use <resource: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/120797/how-do-i-set-the-proxy-to-be-used-by-the-jvm>
Note: There's a bug that affects the application's ability to support Proxy Usernames: CS-14736. Please check the release notes for further information.
Do you need to restart the jive-application service after making the the http.proxyHost and http.proxy.Port changes?
Also, do you need to make the jvm change, if so, which file do we make this in? We're still using Jive SBS 3
