Hi

I want to use korganiser where I have a personal (local) calendar and a
shared google calendar. At home this works OK, but at work the proxy is
getting in the way, allthough from kcontrol I sat "auto detect proxy".
This does not work for my KDE apps since I get every 10 mins or so a
"can not find proxy settings" warning.


Firefox has no problem with this automatic detection.

How to set this up for KDE apps?

Tx/Alain

I believe you want automatic detection of network changes, to include the proxy setting.*

There are various approaches you can use.*

If work has a proxy server accessible via URL, you can use the proxy configuration URL setting.* I believe when it finds nothing at home, it will go direct to the Internet.


Otherwise, you need something like NetworkManager that will detect what network you are on and apply the settings you want, including proxy.

Does the proxy require authentication?
If authentication is required you'll have to use something like
export http_proxy="http://usernameassword@hostort"
export ftp_proxy="http://usernameassword@hostort"

I put our proxy details into the /etc/yum.conf file directly. Ours
doesn't require authentication so the entry is of the form:


proxy=http://wwwcache.example.com:8080

..and it works just fine. I believe yum will also pick up the http_proxy
environment variable if it is set, but if you do this you can't run yum
through sudo, as newer versions of sudo strip http_proxy from the
environment by default.
