Interesting idea; loses some of the security though.

Or you can put that in lynx's global configuration file
(/etc/lynx.cfg). Edit that file and search for " proxy" .

export http_proxy="http://localhost:8000/";
export ftp_proxy="http://localhost:8000/";

will let you do most of your stuff (with localhost:8000 replaced by
your proxy-host and the appropriate port number).

You can also use

export https_proxy="http://localhost:8000/";

to, iirc, get some support for https:// urls, if your proxy supports
them, even if Lynx doesn't.

(replace 'export' with 'setenv' if you're using csh or tcsh instead of
sh, ksh or bash)

Cheers,
aj

I don't speak for anyone save myself. PGP encrypted mail preferred.

Try something like:

export http_proxy="http://localhost:8000";

Note the case.  This works for many browsers, not only Lynx.

lynx with a proxy

1998-02-13 Thread Chris 

I was wondering if anyone would know how to set up lynx to use a proxy
server??  The standard lynx package doesn't seem to support it.
