Emerge or YUM by proxy
Posted on November 27th, 2007 by sloboda
In case you need to use emerge from Gentoo Linux or Yum from Fedora or CentOS by a proxy that not requires authentication just use the command below:
export http_proxy=ip_or_servers_name:port
If your proxy requires authentication use:
export http_proxy=”http://username:password@ip_or_servers_name:port”
If you use Gnome, version 2.18 or superior when set up Network Proxy from System Menu, Preferences, this is already done.
