Hi, I am connecting to a wifi network which uses a proxy server. If I export the http_proxy variable correctly in /etc/bash.bashrc the proxy server is working correctly for command line browsers such as lynx.
However, if I set the iceweasel proxy setting to "use system proxy server settings" it does not work. If I set the proxy server manually in iceweasel it does work. I connected to a variety of wifi networks though so I don't want to have to keep changing my proxy server settings manually in iceweasel. (I check that I'm connected to this particular network before setting http_proxy in /etc/bash.bashrc) Also, the http_proxy variable appears to be set in the GUI (I open gnome-terminal and type "echo $http_proxy") to verify this. So, my question is how to make iceweasel use the settings from http_proxy environment variable, so I don't need to update settings for different network profiles by hand? Thanks for any answers in advance. Cheers, Dan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
