[Bug 290313] Re: system-wide proxy does not apply to synaptic
I manually edited /etc/apt/apt.conf to include the details of the proxy I use. This proxy requires authentication. Updating via 'apt' or 'aptitude' on the command-line works fine. Updating network proxy settings via System | Preferences | Network Proxy breaks apt.conf. The settings are included, but the authentication part of the URL (http://USER:p...@proxy...) is not included, even though I have specified the username and password in the network settings dialog. -- system-wide proxy does not apply to synaptic https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/290313 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
[Bug 290313] Re: system-wide proxy does not apply to synaptic
Yep, i got the same problem: i changed my system-wide settings to a proxy connection, then wanted to get back to the regular direct connection... and it didn't work. The weird thing is that i can still access the web through most applications, like Firefox or aMSN, but none of system-related apps work, such as: -synaptic/aptitude/software center/update manager -wget I cannot find a fix so could you post one for now (i did not know how to do the one suggested at the beginning of the thread). -- system-wide proxy does not apply to synaptic https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/290313 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

Sorry for the double-post, but i actually found a solution that does well the trick: run sudo nano /etc/apt/apt.conf then write de line Acquire::http::Proxy direct; Then save, and everything works fine (even wget :O ). -- system-wide proxy does not apply to synaptic https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/290313 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
[Bug 290313] Re: system-wide proxy does not apply to synaptic
Please be aware that a fully functional solution should also integrate with ntlmaps or cntlm settings, and Proxy Auto Configuration (PAC) settings in that: - proxy setting is a problem for those frequently switching location - in the great majority of these cases one of the two environment (work) is dominated by MS stuff, and especially proxy ISA server; in these cases a dedicated, intermediate proxy is needed, usually on localhost itself - the most flexible tool currently is the PAC file (javascript) mechanism, but it does not intercept wget calls from synaptic or apt, I believe A 360° solution should include, in my opinion, if possible 1) proxy setup for www-like callers (browsers, ftp, ...) which go to the proxy directly 2) separate proxy setup for ISA-proxy unable applications (apt/dpkg/synaptic/update-manager...) through cntlm or ntlmaps 3) secure authentication for both (don't store passwords, but rather hashes (cntlm has it); or even, ask password to the user at the beginning of the session, or at first usage) 4) (optional) disable cntlm after having done with synaptic or update-manager job 5) all the above based on named location management, triggered by IP detection or other PAC mechanisms (think of IsResolvable()) Hope it is useful Thank you very much -- system-wide proxy does not apply to synaptic https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/290313 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

Apparently, gnome-network-properties (the command that you invoke) is part of the gnome-control-center ( http://git.gnome.org/cgit/gnome- control-center/log/?qt=grepq=network-properties ). Also, I don't know if this problem is local (only in Ubuntu) or should be forwarded to the GNOME people responsible for this.

gnome-control-center applies the system-wide settings through ubuntu- system-service, so I'm marking it as being affected as well. ** Also affects: ubuntu-system-service (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: ubuntu-system-service (Ubuntu) Status: New = Confirmed -- system-wide proxy does not apply to synaptic https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/290313 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
