[newbie] Proxy on Command Line

2005-02-01 Thread Troy Davidson
How do you set a proxy for commandline connections?  I need to use http
access here at work and everything goes through a proxy.  I can't get to
the http mirrors for urpmi.  I assume it is my proxy not setup for
commandline communications.

Thanks.

I have low experiences... :(
but too much depends what do you need for.
you can set an environmental variable called HTTP_POXY
and some progs use it, some do not.
e.g.: HTTP_POXY=http://proxy.local.domain:8080
