1. For gtk3 programs such as rhythmbox and online accounts:
First you need to enter proxy settings in network settings (along with authentication):
Then apply system wide.
2. For apt,software center etc
edit the file /etc/apt/apt.conf
And then replace all the existing text by the following lines
- Acquire::http::proxy "http://username:password@host:port/";
- Acquire::ftp::proxy "ftp://username:password@host:port/";
- Acquire::https::proxy "https://username:password@host:port/";
configure proxy for apt in ubuntu 18.04
Creating an Apt Proxy Conf File
Apt loads all configuration files under /etc/apt/apt.conf.d. We can create a configuration specifically for our proxy there, keeping it separate from all other configurations.
- Create a new configuration file named proxy.conf.
sudo touch /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/proxy.conf
- Open the proxy.conf file in a text editor.
sudo vi /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/proxy.conf
- Add the following line to set your HTTP proxy.
Acquire::http::Proxy "http://user:password@proxy.server:port/";
- Add the following line to set your HTTPS proxy.
Acquire::https::Proxy "http://user:password@proxy.server:port/";
- Save your changes and exit the text editor.
Your proxy settings will be applied the next time your run Apt.
3. Environment variables
edit the file /etc/environment
And then add the following lines after PATH="something here"
- http_proxy=http://username:password@host:port/
- ftp_proxy=ftp://username:password@host:port/
- https_proxy=https://username:password@host:port/
