I want to be able to bypass the proxy server for local addresses ie. addresses
that are in the same domain as my machine.

My machine is in the domain "medscheme.com", and I have tried specifying
"*.medscheme.com" and ".medscheme.com" in the proxy exclusion settings.

But when I try to access the URL 
http://pc-tharbeat/webapp/ums
which is on a PC in the same domain as my PC, it goes via the proxy server.
