@Eric Angell, Respectfully, I disagree. I am in the process of setting up 10 Ubuntu servers for various tasks. My company has a site wide proxy, and this is the ONLY way to get a connection into or out of the building for all protocols and ports. (There are various reasons for this, and it isn't

I have the same problem. For all users of the computer, a proxy is indicated in the http_proxy environnement variable. They enter a pair of id/pwd, in a pop-up authentication window, then they want to view some web page with Firefox. http_proxy=http://ip_proxy:port/ For apt-get, I put in the
