programmatically set proxy (gnome system proxy)

[o5gmmob8]

Hi all,

I want to set the system proxy whenever I enable/disable Tor. I would like it to be integrated so I can just do:

rc tor
/etc/init.d/tor start
set location (tor)

And, voila, tor is automatically started along with polipo as well as gnome made aware to use the tor location which specifies the given proxy to use.


How do I set the system proxy for gnome programmatically?


Thanks,

Walter

gconftool is your friend. You have to run it as user, so "su <username> -c ..."

This lists the proxy settings:

Cool, that will help out perfectly.
