I'm tying to use the command line to change the proxy settings. I'm able to set the proxy using the command:
"c:\Program Files\Boinc\boinccmd.exe" --set_proxy_settings 10.112.15.30 9000 "" "" "" "" "" "" "" 

but I'm unable to disable the proxy using the set_proxy_settings. The command that I use for this is:
"c:\Program Files\Boinc\boinccmd.exe" --set_proxy_settings "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" ""

When I activate, in the GUI, the proxy page shows that the proxy is configured and in the Event Log appears:
Using proxy info from GUI
Using HTTP proxy 10.112.15.30:9000


When I disable the proxy through command line, in the proxy page, there is no proxy configured but in the Event Log appears the following message:
Using HTTP proxy 10.112.15.30:9000

and the Boinc client can't connect to the network.

Using only the GUI, every thing works fine.

Can anyone help me?
Thank you...

I'm not sure, so I asked the developers. Will answer back when they do so to me.
