Setting Up Proxy Server in Ubuntu
If you need to set up a proxy server in Ubuntu, you can do so by configuring the proxy settings in the terminal. Here's how to set up a proxy server and configure proxy settings in Ubuntu:
1. Open the terminal
To set up a proxy server in Ubuntu, you'll need to open the terminal. You can do this by pressing Ctrl+Alt+T or by searching for 'Terminal' in the applications menu.
2. Set proxy in the terminal
Once the terminal is open, you can set the proxy using the following command:
$ export http_proxy=http://your_proxy_server:port
$ export https_proxy=https://your_proxy_server:port
Replace 'your_proxy_server' with the IP address or domain of your proxy server and 'port' with the port number used by the proxy server.
3. Verify the proxy settings
After setting the proxy, you can verify that the settings are applied by running the following command:
$ echo $http_proxy
$ echo $https_proxy
If the proxy settings are configured correctly, you should see the proxy server address and port number displayed.
4. Configure system-wide proxy settings
To ensure that the proxy settings are applied system-wide, you can configure the proxy settings in the network settings or use tools like 'gnome-network-properties' or 'network-admin'.
By following these steps, you can easily set up a proxy server in Ubuntu and configure the proxy settings in the terminal.
