Description prabhut 2002-04-10 07:32:30 UTC
Firewall has been set in our organisation. In order to browse through the 
internet, we have been given a user-id and password. For every internet 
connection, we should give this user-id and password for validation. Only 
on successful authorisation, we are allowed to browse through internet.

Similar configuration might have been done in customer place also. In such 
case, gnome-dictionary should have a provision for specifying the user-id 
and password in some configuration files or atleast it should prompt the 
user.

Current gnome-dictionary is lagging this feature.

Sorry, by mistake I gave gdialog as the component. I am correcting to 
gdict.
Comment 2 Luis Villa 2002-04-11 17:54:41 UTC
wipro: It would be really helpful (especially for small products like
gdict) if you could at least make minimal effort to ensure your bugs
are not duplicates before you file them. Even a very minimal search on
'gdict' and 'proxy' would have turned this bug up.
