Been hammering Google a bunch for information.
Maybe if I can change a setting in PHP to look for the proxy server?
I'll keep googling, but if anyone already has experience with this, let me know!
Thanks, Dave

I've noticed that some of the issues effecting my wiki seem to be related to the fact that it sits behind a corporate firewall, and the wiki won't pull the data from external sites (say for an RSS feed) due to the proxy.
Is there a way for me to tell MediaWiki the proxy settings (port, username, password) required for it to then be able to use the proxy?
You can't tell MediaWiki that as MediaWiki doesn't have an RSS import feature. But you might check PHP's http client configuration (if any) and/or the particular methods that your custom extensions use to pull data.
Use google to search for documentation? That's what I'd do.
