[Nottingham] LaTeX, Proxy Settings, University of Nottingham

[Matthew Tompsett]

On campus I use the proxy config url '
http://wwwcache.nottingham.ac.uk/proxyall.conf' , also you can set the http
proxy to 128.243.220.20:3128 (thats port 3128). I have to use the manual
proxy configuration do download files from the Ubuntu repositories on the
Uni network, but the proxy url works fine for web browsing.

Hope that helps,

Matt
