I am new to ubuntu,
my network connection is using a proxy, I have edited the FireFox preferences and set the proxy connection parameters, and could connect to the Internet,
But not via the Terminal,
when I am using the command : wget http://......the link I am trying to download....
I got an error, as the Terminal can not connect via the proxy, in another word to use the proxy parameters.he proxy !
there is a proxy server running on some machine on some specific port. so we connect to proxy to establish the connection over the internet.
now is it possible to connect to internet without connecting to proxy?
I run Fedora 14. I use Firefox. Because I live in China, I have a VPN service from [URL] Their software has configured Firefox to use a proxy. I do not start Astrill on boot. If I start Firefox first, I cannot connect to the internet. how to tell Firefox not to use a proxy? Today, Astrill was down or unavailable or whatever, and I could not reach the internet. I have looked in Edit-Preferences but I cannot see a tab 'configure proxy'
View 5 Replies View RelatedI am unable to connect to the Internet in lucid via a proxy server using apt-get or synaptic. Opera & firefox connects to the internet fine with the proxy setting.
I have tried the following solutions:
1) set proxy setting using systems|preferences|network proxy
2) editing ~/.bashrc & /etc/.bashrc
3) creating a /etc/apt/apt.conf file.
4) putting the proxy setting in synaptic
For the proxy setting I have used the both the verbose name as well as the ip address. There is no logon requirements for the proxy server. Either formats work in the browsers.

View 2 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to connect to a samba share on the other side of a dynamic ssh tunnel?I like to use ssh -D 8080 <host> to access the network on the other side of a ssh session. For applications with their own proxy settings it seem to work really nice.In this particular case I'd like to use the 'Connect to server' feature in Ubuntu to connect a samba share through the tunnel, but I can't figure out how to make only that connecton use proxy settings.If I enforce system wide proxy settings the ssh tunnel will die, so that is not an option.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI used windows OS and installed Ubuntu 10.04 (amd64) in separate partition and works well but had a problem in internet connectivity. Likely reason may be the proxy setting that we used in college (currently). I used this commands to set up the IP address and gateway.
ifconfig -a | grep eth
"eth0"
sudo ifconfig eth0 192.168.5.209 netmask 255.255.255.0
[code]....
Then I manually set the proxy setting of HTTP which is given as proxy server 192.168.5.2 and port as 8000, further more there is a wins setting which is 192.168.1.178, really don't know where to put this number.
When I installed Ubuntu 11 Server, it asked for a proxy http address. I gave it our address, I'll call it a.b.c.d. It did not, however, prompt for the port number (8080). Now, when I do the following:
sreeve@pto:~$ !20
sudo apt-get update
0% [Connecting to a.b.c.d (a.b.c.d)] [Connecting to a.b.c.d (a.b.c.d)]
it just sits there for a while and then says:
unable to connect to a.b.c.d
Is there a way to give it a proxy http address with the port number also?
On this box I have Two seperate Ubuntu installations. Recently in both I seem to be having the same problem. I initially can connect to the internet as per normal and use any internet application. But after a period of time, sometimes just minutes, sometimes hours, even though the icon says connected, I cant update pages or send emails etc because there is no actual connection. My Physical connection is good I know - My Ubuntu laptop and Windows gamming PC connect fine during this period. So
Does this suggest an intermittent hardware fault or is there some thing in Ubuntu I can check to make sure that it is setup correctly and nothing has been corrupted? I am a lay PC person - I dont really want to be command prompting - Plug & Play and Point & Click is my limit.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to setup a dhcp server for my internal network. I have two NICs, a modem, and a wireless router. I have my server connected directly to my modem which is providing me with Internet access on eth1 and is working fine. I have dhcp and dns setup on eth0 which is connected to my router. The router shows that it is connected to the Internet but when the router gives a client computer an IP address, the client is unable to connect to the Internet but can connect to the router. I will post my configuration files below with my current configuration.

View 9 Replies View RelatedSetting up an Internet proxy In the past I had set a computer to act as an Internet proxy. This would be multihomed, and running dansguardian, tinyproxy and firehol. Then webmin would be used as interface. By time I realised that this system is far from effective. Is there some other way to setup a proxy to be placed between users and the Internet? I would like (the admin) to be able to see in which sites users go and have a lot of control on access..

[INTERNET]----[DSL-MODEM]----[ROUTER]----[SQUIDSERVER]----[NETWORK]
Connected to the DSL-MODEM is the PC in question that I can't connect to when using Squid. If I bypass the Squid from the Network and go through the router I can connect to the PC.
I want to be able to use the Squid server and still access the PC connected to the Modem and I want to have a Squid SAR report of the Network PC's accessing the PC on the modem.
The Modem/Router/Squid/Network all use the same IP range, but the PC on the modem has a different IP.

The PC successfully access Internet through a proxy server configured in Mozilla(manual proxy config) but the update option or the Synaptic Pkg mngr are not able to access internet anyway. I have tried the option "Apply System Wide" in "Network Proxy" but no progress so far.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI've been searching for the exact set of tools to accomplish what I need. I was once at a LANparty. I used my webmail account and I think someone stole my password. I realized that the LAN used hubs instead of switches.
So next time, I thought I could run a server at home, which would allow me to connect with SSL (??). Then I would be able to connect to whatever website knowing that I was secure between myself and my home computer. I guess I would need to have a key before a secure connection could be made. Otherwise a "man in the middle" kind of exchange could take place.
So I guess I would need a VPN between myself and my home computer. Then my home computer would act as a proxy to allow me to surf securely. I'm not sure if these are the correct terms to use. Does anyone know what type of server I'm looking for?
I've got my netbook set up so that I can run a SOCKS proxy via my desktop machine. This works fine at home, but I'm wondering what happens at an internet cafe with public wifi.
Specifically, the connection needs initially to be set up with an ordinary direct internet connection so that I can log in to the cafe's router. I'm concerned that when I then set the network proxy to SOCKS host, the router will cease to recognise me and will disconnect me. This particular detail doesn't seem to have been covered in any instructions that I've seen (maybe I haven't looked hard enough).
I have Fedora running on the comp which is sitting behind proxy, which required username and password to access internet. The username is E-mail address.
