Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gnome-control-center
Arch: amd64 Dist: Lucid Lynx (10.04) Executable Path: /usr/bin/gnome-network-properties: When changing the proxy preferences, authentication settings are not carried through to some of the "System Wide" applications. Authentication is generally set using http_proxy=http://username:passw...@proxy_ip_address:proxy_port, however some of these applications are only configured with no authentication information (http_proxy=http://proxy_ip_address:proxy_port) The main application that I noticed this on is apt (/etc/apt/apt.conf), but I will sporadically run into other application that I have to manually update as well. ** Affects: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Proxy "Apply System Wide" does not preserve authentication settings https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/602254 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
