Hi,
we encountered an issue with new version 3.4.0. Our network is behind a proxy, so in porteus kiosk wizard we have always selected DHCP -> Proxy in user:password@proxyIP:port format .
In previous versions we were able to go with Firefox to a web page, where we saved configurations in a text file. With version 3.4.0, we can not reach any external website, Firefox gives connection error. So i tried to visit an internal website, and I was able to reach it: this is because our proxy is configured to allow connections to internal websites, and ask for authentication for external ones. Proxy configuration set in welcome wizards are correct, because at the beginning it gives "Connection successful" message and downloads Firefox correctly: it looks like that proxy credentials are not saved in Firefox.
Moreover, if we manually configure the wizard and install Porteus kiosk on the hard disk, Firefox opens a popup after reboot and asks for proxy credentials. With previous versions we did not have similar issues.
Do you have any clue?
