Re: How to resolve SOAP differences

If you start proxyTrace you must supply a port number, the default is 8080.
So the proxy on your PC is http://localhost:8080. This address must be set
to the "Proxy" property of HttpWebRequest. See
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/cpref/html/frlrfSystemNetHttpWebRequestClassProxyTopic.asp

So you end up with something like:

....
WebProxy traceProxy = new WebProxy(http://localhost:8080);
httpRequest.Proxy = traceProxy;
....
