Hmm, I'd be interested to know what happens if you try it without.
Around here we've still got MSIE 5 and 6 on some boxes, and they accept
a proxy without a /n after it.
But I just noticed that mine (according to the rules I read on one or
three websites) doesn't use local-wpad, mine's like this:
option wpad-curl code 252 = text;
option wpad-curl "http://proxy.example.com/wpad.dat";
I also notice that despite Microsoft recommending that technique, none
of their browsers pay any attention to DHCP supplied proxy addresses.
They blandly look for /wpad.dat on the local webserver (a webserver with
the same domain name as itself, or a proxy sub-domain, or the same
subnet).
Looks like time for some more experimenting. :-\
