 |
|
Hi everybody,
I try to install gentoo behind a proxy. and when I try to execute mirrorselect or emerge sync, I get no answer. The links web browser works perfectly, after I set the proxy server on his configuration. How can I configure gentoo to use proxy for these applications (emerge and mirrorselect)? |

Hi!
Your proxy needs to be able to use the CONNECT method on port 873 to support rsync (emerge sync).
To define the proxy execute the following commands:
| Code: | prompt# export RSYNC_PROXY="yourproxy:proxyport"
prompt# export http_proxy="http://yourproxy:proxyport/"
prompt# export ftp_proxy="http://yourproxy:proxyport/" |
HTH

It doesn't go in any file, just use the export command.
By the way, I can't use proxy authentication with links, where do I specify username and password?
I specified them in export command, but I guess links doesn't handle export as I have to -http-proxy.

I created a script for export but it doesn't seem to work.
export command didn't make links to authenticate to the proxy during installation process, I managed to download stage and portage in another way.
Now that the system is installed, I can use links to browse the internet without using export or configuring network in links  Does it use proxy settings of firefox?
