Can't update Veeam endpoint backup that are behind a proxy

[j.dop]

Hi there,

I installed Veeam endpoint backup on a few computers that are behind a proxy, so i tried to update it but it keeps failing.

I tried the option with the certificates but it still fails. After that i found an option to login on the back-up server as the user, but i'm logged in on both as administrator. So that couldn't be the thing.
I also tried netsh from SysWOW64

Is there another way to update the back-up program that are behind a proxy?
Maybe with an URL or with a promtcommand?

Also i cant add a Support Case Id since the report an issue keeps telling me that the remote server returned an error: 407 Proxy Authentication Required. But i'm not behind a proxy.

Hi j.dop,

I was told that if proxy settings are specified in internet explorer VEB should pick them up. Additionally, you can download the latest VEB version and run a silent install (silent upgrade) for your endpoints.

Thanks, that did the trick. This one can be closed now...

Sorry to respond to an aged thread. We currently have this issue. It's our webfilter\proxy that needs a rule for the URL that Windows agent uses to update. Any chance you know the URL the agent uses to update from, please?

Hi John,

No worries about revising an old threat

*.veeam.com should be the URL that will allow you to contact the update server (both the check and the download of the update itself)

Hope it helps
Mike
