it is still present in 11.04 production. since i am visiting several customers, i need to save their proxy information. Although i saved the authentication credentials, it does not do any good and i t makes me to ask customer to enter the username/password every time, for each different browser, mail client, synaptic like tools which is not a good way.
gnome-network-propeties takes all the required parameters, host, port, username, password but sets proxy only as host:port. It should be a one line of code to fix just by adding username:password@host:port. I hope it will be patched as soon as possible. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/494373 Title: gnome-network-properties sets $http_proxy incorrectly -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
