Using Knoppix 3.6 with a proxy server
I am wanting to start to use Knoppix to scan my NTFS partitions for virus' using F-Prot. This is from work so there is a proxy server that I must go through. I know the address and port, but whenever I input the info into Knoppix, once it is booted up, I use the "Install Software from disk" (this is Knoppix 3.6). From there I try to install F-Prot, my problem is that when it tries to get the program and updates from the FTP site, it can't. I have made sure that the FTP setting under the proxy server settings is correct and it still can't connect. It says something like "no tunnel" or "connection failed". Any help with this will be very helpful. Thanks.

from terminal screen :
sudo export http_proxy=http://myproxy.xxx.xxxortnumber
sudo export ftp_proxy=http://myproxy.xxx.xxxortnumber
and from this same terminal launch any script which has to know the proxysettings.
Hope this'll set you on the right track

That didn't work. I am sort of a begginer when it comes to Linux. Is there another way I can make this work and use the GUI front end for F-Prot?

Maybe you need to authenticate to the proxy in which case the above becomes:
export http_proxy=user:password@proxy_host:portnumber
