Gnome 3 on OpenSUSE 12.2 Proxy Porblem

view full story
linux-howto

http://unix.stackexchange.com – Recently I've switched from Fedora 17 to OpenSUSE 12.2. I used to add my proxy from Network Settings>Network Proxy>Manual Method>Socks Hosts. But it doesn't work on openSUSE. I get the following error in Chrome: Error 120 (net::ERR_SOCKS_CONNECTION_FAILED): Unknown error. Further more proxy setting at Gnome Config Editor is not applied at all. I know that I can use proxy at software level (like firefox) but then I have to set the proxy for all of my application and some application doesn't support that. (HowTos)

YUM workin with a proxy 3 years 14 weeks ago

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.

I am using Ubuntu 11.10. In System Settings -> Network I can add a Socks proxy but it doesn't work with my UDP application or even Firefox (it just connects using my real IP). What do I need to do to send my UDP program's data through a proxy ?

Hi all,I'm trying to channel all my traffic through tor but KDE doesn't seem to recognize my proxy settings. To set up the proxy, I went to System Settings -> Network Settings -> Proxy -> Use manually specified proxy configuration and set the value of SOCKS proxy to socks://localhost, PORT to 9050.

Alright, so basically what I need is for the terminal to use a SOCKS (version 4) proxy.

[ubuntu] Proxy socks error! 2 years 22 weeks ago

I set socks5 proxy system> preferences> network middleman to connect through wifi to a router with Firewall may have to unlock something? ping is normal, but if you want to connect to the site by the browser it shows the error:

Code: Unable to connect to the proxy server.

A proxy server is a server that acts as an intermediary between your computer and other servers.

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?

I assume that the above is just for normal HTTP proxies ...

We had way too many server downtimes during the last month in our infrastructure. These were caused by an unreliable login proxy.

wget behind a proxy 36 weeks 2 days ago

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.
