I was receiving the following error in my logs after id deployed a RSS Web Part at a client site:
RssWebPart: Exception handed to HandleRuntimeException System.Net.WebException: Unable to connect to the remote server
Id seen a similiar problem to this resolved before but couldn't find the information so thought I would post for future reference
Adding the following to the system.net node at the bottom of my web.config sorted error right out;
<defaultProxy>
<proxy
usesystemdefault="false"
proxyaddress="http://proxyaddress:port"
bypassonlocal="true"
/>
</defaultProxy>
