View Full Version : Installing f-prot when behind a proxy server?

I have been using the f-prot install on the live CD for a while now. I tried to do it today at work for a machine that may have been infected and I could not install f-prot. We are behind a proxy server and all ftp access goes out thru our gateway (username@ourgateway.com format). Is there any way to get this to work like this? I ended up installing the drive as a secondary HD on a Windows box and scanning it that way with NAV.

Thanks in advance.

export http_proxy=http://user:password@YOUR_PROXY:8080/

For hdd install you can add that to /etc/profile. If you don't need to specify the username/password:

export http_proxy=http://YOUR_PROXY:8080/
