Re: GTCD: Accessing CDDB from behind a firewall

[James Henstridge <james daa com au>]

Click on the properties button (bottom row, middle button) to bring up the
properties dialog.

In the server settings, choose "Use HTTP", and set the proxy to your http
proxy (in http://proxyhost:port/ format).  Address should be
freedb.freedb.org and port should be 80 after doing this.  Gtcd should now
do cddb lookups through your proxy cache.

James.
