Hi,
I am using FC11. My problem is whatever application that needs access to the internet are blocked by company's proxy server. So, configuration is like
my_machine---------> firewall ----------> outside world..google and etc

Now, If I am using firefox then I have configured it to use proxy server and required login details and etc.

But, my eclipse, ssh, git and all those needs internet connection as well... Is there anything like which sets all details (proxy server, user name and passwd) system wide ? So that I dont have to pass it to each application...

Any help would be appreciated ....

probably HHTP_PROXY is the variable is what you need to set. Thats normally set, so that CLI apps can access internet through proxy

(set FTP_PROXY to access FTP sites)

It should be http_proxy not in caps. Put it in your .bashrc so that you don't have to export it every time.

setting http_proxy wouldnt help in doing ssh and git.....
