First of all we should know the
difference between the Direct Internet connection and proxy Server.
Direct internet connection means connecting your computer through
Modem directly. where as Proxy Server means connecting your computer
through Server which already has internet connection. For this you
need to connect your computer to proxy server with some interface
like LAN(Local Area Network or WI-Fi). For this you need to have the
basics of LAN Settings.
After the connection establishment
proxy server treats your computer as the Client and proxy server acts
as Server. When it getting internet from the internet provider it
actually proxy server acts as client. So it is a interface between
your computer and internet connection.
With this introduction I am going to
give the Proxy Server settings in Linux fedora and Ubuntu in three
steps.
Step 1:Open Network proxy:
To
open Network Proxy just follow:
System>>Preferences>>Network Proxy
Check It Out: Lan
Settings in Linux
Step 2:Configure Network Proxy:
Now
you can see the options like 'Direct Internet Connection','Manual
Proxy Configuration'.
Keep
it remember that you should go for the Direct internet connection
when you are using Modem.
Other
wise use the Manual Proxy Configuration Option. So to use this option
you must aware of the HTTP proxy of your server. So please contact
your administration for this information.
In
this image you can see that it is 10.20.3.11
and
Port Number: 3128
Again
give the port number which is again Admin Option to set it up. So by
knowing these two options you can set up the manual proxy
configuration settings. Then click the Option 'Use the same proxy for
all protocols'.
Check It Out: Volume
Control Settings in Linux
Step 3: Proxy Ignored Hosts and Other Options:
If
you click on the tab 'Ignored Hosts', you will see on text box and
add button. Just give the local addresses to Ignore by the Local
Proxy Server.
By
using the details option you can set up your Username and Pass word
for the Authentication.
When
you press the close Button it will asks you to apply it for the
entire system. In that case press press enter and Give the root pass
word if it ask.
