any solutions?

assuming this for bash, try this

prompt$ . setproxy

note the space in between the dot and setproxy

Thanks. It has worked. But in mandrake script used to give desired result even with ./setproxy Any idea about the reason why it is not working in debian (kanotix)

Is it possible that you were issuing: $ . ./setproxy

This executes the commands in the script in the current shell without spawning a new shell. Therefore your export works.

I don't think the command below can do that:

$ ./setproxy

This has more to do with shell than distros.
