Description Josh Triplett 2011-04-05 03:54:07 UTC 
Steps to reproduce:

- Open gnome-network-properties
- Select the "Default" location
- Switch to "Manual proxy configuration"
- Check "Use the same proxy for all protocols" if not already checked
- Delete the HTTP proxy and set the port to 0
- Switch back to "Direct internet connection"
- In the location dropdown, choose "New Location...", and enter some
  sample name.
- In the new location, choose "Manual proxy configuration"
- Uncheck "Use the same proxy for all protocols"
- Enter proxy.example.com for all four hostnames.  For ports, put 1234
  as the port for the first three, and 1080 for the Socks port.  (Just
  so you can distinguish it in this test.)
- In the location dropdown, choose Default.
- In the location dropdown, choose the new location you created.
- Notice the blanked-out settings for "Secure HTTP proxy", "FTP proxy",
  and "Socks host".
- File a bug

I'm not sure this is still valid for 3.0.0 -- can you please recheck. Thanks.

No, I can't easily check that.  Perhaps someone with GNOME 3 installed could try the procedure I specified in the original report?

No I cant reproduce in 2.32 and 3.0, in fedora 14/15 and ubuntu 11.04.
