Proxy Support for Pinging Google, etc
« on: July 26, 2008, 03:41:26 PM »

Any chance you can implement proxy support in the SiteMap Generator?
Our servers are using IPVS behind a gatewat and due to how the routing is setup the ping functionality doesn't work.

We have a proxy server setup for this type of issue.


Thanks,

David

Hello,

you can set the proxy manually in config.inc.php file specifying IP and port number like:
'xs_curlproxy' => '222.222.222.222:3128'

Hi,

Thanks for the reply - would setting this apply to the sitemap generation also?
It's only the ping that should hit the proxy - the generation of the sitemap shouldn't.

BTW: Great product - works well and when you find the sweet spot with the settings - it runs happily.
We're not that large but we have 60-80k links at 4 levels deep and it takes about 2 hours to run.

Thanks,

David

Hello,

the setting is applied to all http requests, both sitemap generation and pings.

Thank you for your kind words.
