Re: http_proxy with firefox?
Hello. I use transproxy which is a transparent proxy. Of course this is only usable if you have a debian router/gateway. A transparent proxy completely prevents anyone from attempting to bypass or even know that a proxy is even there. ;) To use a transproxy you will also need to use this iptables rule: iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING --protocol tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-ports 8081 Change 8081 to which ever your proxy port maybe. Happy hacking :) Kevin.

You can add a parent proxy to it's config (upstream server:port) with a script launched at network start. Configure all your browsers, environment variables and tools to use your local proxy. pgpI6jJcpwhZL.pgp Description: PGP signature

If all else fails then you could tell firefox to use a pac file for proxy configuration. You can use a simple script to change this file (or redirect a symlink) depending on which network is detected. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proxy_auto-config -- Regards, Florian -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

I have my laptop setup to automatically set the environment variable depending on where I am. KDE does a nice job and allows one to use the environment variables. I haven't figured out how to do it wich Firefox though... Thanks, Chris -- Echte DSL-Flatrate dauerhaft für 0,- Euro*. Nur noch kurze Zeit!
