The problem has to do with rights definition on the RR server. When a
proxy is created, the resource 'gets' the rights of the proxy object.
Actually RR checks the rights of the proxy with every request.

If there are more than one proxy, how does RR know which one to check?
 There are  a number of  different ways to solve this problem, but
they all have pros and cons.  Thus this was on the ToDo list, but we
haven't decided how we want to approach it.

I'm wondering if MJ ran into this on his RR project....
