mobileconfig proxy username and password

Hi all,

I use the iPhone Configuration Utility to configure the proxy server and port to connect through our business APN. This works fine but I have to enter username and password each time I open Safary. I would like to modify the .mobileconfig file in such a way that this is done automaticly.

this is what I have so far

<key>apn</key>
<string>mobile.test.com</string>
<key>proxy</key>
<string>proxy.test.corp.local</string>
<key>proxyPort</key>
<integer>8080</integer>
<key>proxyUsername</key>
<string>test\myname</string>
<key>proxyPassword</key>
<string>mypassword</string>

1. Is the syntax of proxyUsernam and proxyPassword correct?

When I enter a password for the APN with the iPhone configuration utility, I see in the .mobileconfig file that the password is encrypted.

2. How can I add an ecrypted password in the .mobileconfig file?

3. How can/should I add the proxy username and proxy password in the file?

thx
