🚀 go-pugleaf

Thanks for the Info
that does seem to be the problem because with further testing we were able
to ascertain that
we can access webpages within the intranet.
But unfortunately still we are unable to access the outside web even using

    // set up to use proxy
    System.getProperties().put("http.proxySet", "true");
    System.getProperties().put("http.proxyHost", proxyHost);
    System.getProperties().put("http.proxyPort", proxyPort);

We are still getting the same exception as before
(java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused: )

if you have any other sugestions as to why this might be so we would be
happy to hear them
