I've just abused a squid server to also provide a proxy.pac file.

I "disguised" the proxy.pac file as an icon; perhaps there's better ways of
doing it but at least this works:

* put the proxy.pac file in your icon directory
* put an entry in the mime.conf file:
\.pac$ application/x-ns-proxy-autoconfig proxy.pac - ascii
* restart squid

Now you should be able to request the file using
http://proxy.domain.com:3128/squid-internal-static/icons/proxy.pac

Bye, Martin
