E.F.A. Update/Upgrade behind a proxy server
Posted: 20 Apr 2016 12:38
Hey Guys,
if you're trapped behind a proxy server (like me), than you need to configure some proxy settings for different tools. I will share my exp. here:
global proxy variable:
edit file /etc/environment or ~/.bashrc
edit file /etc/wgetrc for wget
edit file /etc/yum.conf for yum
sudo visudo for rpm
go to section with 'Defaults' and add this rows
edit file /etc/freshclam.conf for clamav
there is a section # Proxy settings where you can remove the leading # and add your proxy host and port
My proxy doesn't require any client auth. so it was ok just add ip an port. If you need auth, you have to add your user:password right after the 'http://'' (like the expample for the global proxy setting).
Maybe you have to disable some download restrictions on your proxy too.
Have fun
