We have a JIRA and a confluence server in the same network, and we want to use the user management by the JIRA server for both of them.
However the connection test fails with:
Connection test failed. Response from the server:
org.apache.http.conn.ConnectTimeoutException: Connect to proxy.abg.fsc.net:81 [proxy.abg.fsc.net/172.25.139.4] failed: connect timed out
So Confluence is trying to reach JIRA via a proxy server, although there is a NO_PROXY configuration for .fsc.net.
(Confluence V6.0.1, JIRA 7.2.4)
