I recently installed a Kubuntu 10.04 desktop pc at work but I am having troubles connecting to the company's proxy server from the CLI and with eg. KPackageKit. I know I should export http_proxy like this:
export http_proxy="http://username
assword@proxy:8080/"
but this doesn't work since my username has a domain in it like OCS\username
I read on the Ubuntu forums export http_proxy="http://domain\\usernameassword@proxy:8080/" should work but it didn't.
Connecting to the proxy in Firefox works, the prompt accepts the domain\username syntax.
Any ideas?
