If any computer on which AB Tutor Control is installed accesses the Internet via a proxy server, then details of the proxy server must be entered into AB Tutor Control's settings.
- Launch AB Tutor Control (you will see a warning message as the program fails to connect to the Internet)
- Select the 'Tools' menu.
- Hold down the 'Ctrl' key and click on 'Settings'
- This will open up a special version of the setting dialog box which includes a Proxy Server tab. Select this tab.

- This will open up the Proxy Server dialog box.

- Enter the IP address or server name of your proxy server - Enter the port number used to access the proxy server - If your proxy server requires authentication, enter the username and password used to access the proxy server.
Some systems allow you to bypass a proxy server and connect directly to the Internet. This is not normally the case - so if you select this option and AB Tutor Control is still unable to verify its licence, you will need to enter the proxy server settings above.
If you do not enter a username and password and the proxy server requires authentication, then every time AB Tutor Control is launched, the person currently logged on will be prompted to enter this information. To prevent a teacher being prompted for their username and password every time the software is run, we would recommend that you create a dedicated AB Tutor Control account and enter the username (e.g. ABTutor) and password into the proxy server settings on each copy of the software.
