Web Proxy Configuration

Web Proxy Configuration for New Installations

For new Standard Server installs, the OS will be blank and thus the tools provided in an existing installation will be absent.

As part of the install/upgrade package provided on the Extranet.

A script "proxy-config" is provided in the archive, along with the install.sh and upgrade.sh scripts.

Copy the "proxy-config" script file to the OS (using your preferred method. Or use WinSCP)

In a terminal connection, make the script executable and convert it to unix format.

sudo chmod +x proxy-config

sudo chmod dos2unix proxy-config

You can run the script without any commands and it will output usage information

sudo ./proxy-config

Usage: proxy-config {set <host> <port> [username] [password]|get|remove|status}

To set a proxy, use the set command and provide the required information
If the proxy does not require user authentication (for example, it relies on IP whitelisting), you only need to provide the Host and Port.

If you provide a Username, you must provide a password.

sudo ./proxy-config set proxy-server.bt.com 3128 proxyuser password123

You can check the status with the status command

sudo ./proxy-config status

You can remove proxy configuration with the remove command

sudo ./proxy-config remove
