Hi everybody,
I have got a proxy in my house with a password and an username.
When I'm trying to connect me on the localhost:5601. My screen display the famous error "Kibana: Unknown error while connecting to Elasticsearch.
My Elasticsearch version is 1.5.2.
Where do I have to implement my proxy adress, my password and my username ?
Thanks,

You can set a username and password in the `kibana.yml`, but not sure if that will work.
Check [the docs](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/kibana-server-properties.html) for more info.

I tried, it's not working. I think I should put the adress of my proxy but I don't know where.
