[Sugar-devel] Fwd: #841 UNSP: SoaS should support using a proxy server

[Peter Robinson]

Hi Caroline,

You might want to try setting the gnome proxy server settings as I believe
(this theory is untested) xulrunner and telepathy should recognise those
settings. you can get that by running gnome-network-properties which is part
of the control-center package (no idea off hand if that is in SoaS by
default), but you can also set it using the command line but I'm not sure
how off hand.

Peter
