What are you setting, environment variables I assume?

A quick kludge might be to replace scep-submit with a shell script that exports the proxy config and then calls the real scep-submit.

A perhaps better and more supportable idea would be to add a CA pointing to this new helper, something like:

getcert add-ca -c exampleSCEPca -e \
     "/usr/libexec/certmonger/scep-submit-proxy -u http://ca.example.com/cgi-bin/pkiclient.exe"

So scep-submit-proxy would setup the environment and call scep-submit.
