Adding proxy info to winetools


Recommended Posts

I did a google search for"winetools proxy" and found this mailing list entry which should be very useful.

 

Basically, winetools uses wget to get files, so you need to set up the proxy for wget, and wget uses ftp_proxy and http_proxy environmental variables which you can set at the command line before using winetools, i.e.:

export ftp_proxy=http://web.address.of/proxy:port
export http_proxy=http://web.address.of/proxy:port

You should be able to set this in your .bashrc or .bash_profile in your home directory so that it is set everytime you login in the future.
