We have a proxy server in our college which I am handling. Every machine in the college has to enter a username/password to get access to the internet. The only problem I am facing is that there is no way to configure apt-get and Synaptic for the proxy alongwith username/password. They just give an option of entering a proxy server entry, nothing for username/password. Is there anything to configure proxy with username/password in apt-get and Synaptic? (Actually, there is one I know but its unethical and insecure to be used on the local network.)
