Hi everybody, I'm trying to change users proxy settings using the root account, with the following command
su jose -c "gconftool-2 --type string --set /system/http_proxy/host someproxy.com" However, the command does nothing. If I login with my user, then "su" to the root account, and then execute the previous command, it works. So I suppose that it is something related to login, like environment variables. However, the "su --login" command doesn't help. Anyone knows why it is not possible to change user's gconf with gconftool-2 logged in as root? I'm using Debian Wheezy Thanks!
