I am trying to get wget running behind a proxy. Since Ubuntu didn't support providing authentication information for the proxy (the one in the system settings), I had to use a ntlm proxy (in my case, I use cntlm). In the network settings I have set the proxy to 127.0.0.1:3128, which works fine for Chrome. APT has its own configuration file, where I've also set the proxy to 127.0.0.1:3128.

Hi,
I have been trying to get my updates on a network that runs a proxy. I have been able to get it working in both Ubuntu and OpenSuse in under 10 minutes, but in Fedora (12) whatever I have tried has not worked.
At work we have a proxy that requires authentication (windows username/password) to be able to use.
I am in the situation where I have a program that communicates via port 443 but has no scope for proxy use.
Assuming the firewall cannot be changed is there any way that the program I have can be made to work through the proxy?
My thoughts are along the lines of a 3rd party app that will be proxy
The man page to yum.conf describes several proxy related variables:
proxy URL to the proxy server that yum should use.
proxy_username username to use for proxy
proxy_password password for this proxy
But how to specify a SOCKS proxy?

some HOWTOs and manuals suggest to install a forward proxy in DMZ and some advice to place it in LAN.
The forward proxy doesn't offer anything to the internet users, it could not be directly attacked from the WAN.
We put http or smpt servers in DMZ to protect our LAN if they compromised.
