145876 - Proxy: "no proxy for" localhost and 127.0.0. by default

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 31510

(Core :: Networking, defect)

Description

[u32858]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.0rc2) Gecko/20020510
BuildID:    2002051013

localhost and 127.0.0.1 should not be proxied by default IMO

http://localhost:631/
http://127.0.0.1:631/

Every time i get this error, as it actually tries to access the webserver on the
proxy.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.configure your http/socks proxy
2.try to visit http://localhost:631/ or http://127.0.0.1:631/ providing you have
CUPS, or use another serice you know is running like your normal web server
3.

Actual Results:  ERROR
The requested URL could not be retrieved
While trying to retrieve the URL: http://localhost:631/
The following error was encountered:
    * Access Denied.
Access control configuration prevents your request from being allowed at this time.
Please contact your service provider if you feel this is incorrect.
Your cache administrator is webmaster.

Expected Results:  I cant think of any case when it would be better to configure
local access through a remote
proxy, could these be automatically added to "no proxy for: " list please?
