Hi,
You need to provide more details. Is this going to be a head-less machine? Is
somebody going to use the machine for these purposes?
If someboy is going to be using it...for http and ftp...just make sure you
select the appropiate proxy in your browser.
If it's going to http and ftp outside -via some scripts- then you need to make
sure you set the environment variable "http_proxy". You could do it like
this, in your script:
export http_proxy=192.168.2.1:8080
wget blablabla...
ftp bla bla...
Most decent programs will catch the http_proxy variable.
Finally, please don't post in HTML to the list.
HTH,
Jorge
