[Nottingham] Proxy Default

[David Wolfson]

Sorry, that will have caused thread confusion again!!!  This should be more appropriate...

Thanks for the responses, but I've still not beein able to achieve what I wanted.  Setting the proxy in the gnome configuration works for individual users, but doesn't appear to set a default for all users.  Everyone uses mozilla so is there a mozilla default config file that I could edit?  I've not looked for this myself yet...

Cheers,

Dave

PS since ditching IE and moving to mozilla I've been really impressed by the reduction in unwelcome ads without any external tweaking...

a system wide default http poxy setting for all users, that I don't have 
to change it in mozilla every time anyone wants to start using the 
internet.  I know I've done it for wget in the wgetrc file, but have 
been unable to find anything obvious like iprc or ip.conf.  There's 
nothing obvious in the RH9 guis or documentation and googling gives me a 
lot of information on setting up an apache server!

I tried the GNOME Network Proxy and it works a treat for all my
browsers. (I connect through Privoxy to stop all the unwelcome advertising).

Regards,

Jey
