I am also having issues with wget behind a proxy. Trying to download any address that requires proxy authorization fails with the following message:
"failed: Connection timed out." Also it seems to be trying to connect using port 80. Shouldn't it be using the port specified in the proxy setting? I have the proxy configured correctly in the Gnome Network Proxy Preferences and everything else that needs proxy access works fine, with the exception of apt-get. It's error message is: "407 Proxy Authentication Required" -- Wget does not work with proxy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/554068 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
