That did it - worked perfectly.

Thanks!

Hello All,

I'm sure this must be a fairly quick and easy configuration, but I have not been able to figure it out yet.

How do you configure the proxy settings in the OS itself (not in a browser or other application) so that anytime the server tries to get out to the internet, that it can direct its traffic to go through a proxy server?

I tried putting the proxy settings in .bash_profile per a tech article I found online but that did not work.

The OS is Redhat 7.2.

in /etc/environment add lines like:

export http_proxy="http://proxysrv:3128/" export https_proxy="http://proxysrv:3128/" export ftp_proxy="http://proxysrv:3128/"

Yum has it's own config: /etc/yum.conf, you have to add the following line, near the end of the file:

proxy=http://proxysrv:3128
