Hi!

I have similar problem. I use OpenVPN-on-demand and it works well. But I need to use proxy for surfing. I set it up in configuration profile (Proxy setup - Manual, then address and port), but Safari doesn't use them.

BUT!

If i connected to VPN and this proxy is set up in Wi-Fi settings, then traffic goes through this proxy. Of couse, after disconnect from VPN, Safari tries to use this proxy.

What should I do to make it work correctly?
