Hybrid search with cloud ssa and proxy servers
So did you try changing the proxy in the machine.config file on the query server(s) as in my referenced article? You need a reboot of the query server(s) after you change it btw.
How did you configure the proxy server for the crawl process?
Can you specify the exact errors you are getting during the crawl?
I've had some success changing the machine.config file so all .NET related processes are using the same proxy server. A good example can be found at:

Hi Thomas, we don't have any issues with the crawling. But to answer your question, we added our proxy settings to the mssearch.exe.config. We didn't change system proxy in any way, just the config of the process where we needed this. But crawling with proxies, we have resolved :)
Now, our query components run on other servers than the crawl component, and we have tried setting system proxy with "netsh winhttp set proxy" and by modifying the "NodeRunner.exe.config" with no success.
We have opened a premier ticket with microsoft as well, but trying here as well to improve our odds :)

Hi Thomas,
we have confirmed that putting our proxy settings in the machine.config, changing the registry followed by a restart, solved our problem. I don't have the details about the registry changes, that was suggested by Microsoft Premier Support.
