Set proxy in Ubuntu 11.10

The proxy settings are not complex. Here we just make a record,

Environment: ubuntu11.10 (gnome 3.2)

1. Global gnome proxy settings:

Click the user name in the upper-right corner and you will see "system settings" in the pop-up menu ",

In "network", open the Network Settings dialog box and select "network proxy".

In this way, the global proxy settings are complete.

2. Set a dedicated proxy for Apt

You can perform the following steps to configure a dedicated agent for the apt tool:

1) EDIT apt. conf.

Run sudo gedit/etc/APT/apt. conf.

Note: Sometimes the configuration file does not exist. After it is opened, add or modify the following content:

Acquire: http: proxy "http: // proxy_ip: proxy_port /";

Note: (1) Replace proxy_ip and proxy_port with your proxy IP address and port value.

(2) do not write less symbols.
