I have to use a proxy (a RH8 box in my room) using
squid, squidguard and dansguardian... BUT with the
older RH8 boxes, when I installed them, during the
configuration process, it would ask the gateway (which
is my proxy) and that was all that i needed to do.
Apt & synaptic & yum simply worked without any special
configs. What is different with FC3?
What must I do to make apt, yum, up2date work through
a proxy on FC3?
