Can't use wget
 
In my office network , wehave firewall and the linux server through the proxy server to connect to internet , but the server can't use wget now , could suggest how to setup to use wet ? thx

Wget reads proxy information from the http_proxy and ftp_proxy environment variables. As in:
Code:
http_proxy="http://proxyserver:PORT" wget http://www.google.com

You do not need to modify a file. Just type http_proxy="http://proxyserver:PORT"

If you want that to stay, then you may modify ~/.bashrc, if you are using bash as your shell.

Code:
      --proxy-user=USER    set USER as proxy username.
      --proxy-passwd=PASS  set PASS as proxy password.
To me, it seems like bad software design to make the proxy name be an env. variable and proxy authentication command-line options, but oh well, that's the way it is.
