Hi All,

I'm a bit of a *nix newbie and would appreciate some
advice.  Is there any way that I can setup Myth to
connect to the net via a proxy server?  For example,
all the other machines on the network connect to the
outside world on 192.16.0.1:4480  I'd like to be able
to configure Myth (or even better, the entire
KnoppMyth installation) to use the same details.

Is this possible & if so, does anyone have any
instructions.  A basic, "edit this file with this"
will do me just fine.



If you're referring to the XMLTV/DD downloads (which is, I think, the only "net" access that Myth does), I believe it uses wget to do the downloading so you might try this:

export http_proxy="http://192.168.10.11:8080";
export ftp_proxy="http://192.168.10.11:8080";

alias wget='wget --proxy-user="Wonderwall\JohnDoe" --proxy-passwd="Go4It"'

I think that would "hardcode" wget to use a proxy all the time for all users (assuming you export the variables in the global login script)
