Corporate network internet proxy setup.

[doep100]

Hi all.
I hope this is in the right place...
I recently got my Pi and got it running headless on my corporate network. Using Debian squeeze and SSH'ing into it from a Windoze PC. I need to set up the Pi to access internet through our web proxy which requires authentication. How do I go about this? As it is now, I can ping anything on the local network and can also resolve web addresses like www.google.com etc. I need to find where to set it up with my proxy username and password (which changes every month). Please point me in the right direction.

Regards
Doep

Put this line at the end of your ~bashrc file :
export http_proxy=http://username:password@proxyserver.net:port/

...or if your corporate proxy needs NTLM authentication, you might need to use http://ntlmaps.sourceforge.net/ or http://cntlm.sourceforge.net/
(I haven't used either myself, as I'm not on a corporate network, I've just seen them mentioned on other forums)
