Configuration for a client accessing a proxy server
 

I need to set my Sharp Zaurus to go through a proxy. With Sharp's ROM image there is a little gui for the configuration and I could get on the internet. With open zaurus there isn't a gui for configuration so I was trying to do it through the command line. I have tried
export http_proxy=10.1.0.1:8080
export HTTP_PROXY=10.1.0.1:8080
export http_proxy="10.1.0.1:8080"
export HTTP_PROXY="10.1.0.1:8080"
after this I still get messages saying network is unreachable, or unknown address. Is this how to go about setting up a proxy?

Thanks

Can anyone confirm that that is the right way to configure for a proxy server?

Hi,

I'm having the same problem.

Some programs like the package manager have there own proxy settings. Other command line tolls like wget etc seem to accpet the http_proxy varible but I cannot get konqueror to work at all with a http proxy.

Has anyone got any ideas?
