    Proxy

    To allow your server to access internet via a proxy, Add the following line to the ~/.bashrc

    export http_proxy=http://<proxy>:<port>/

    If you need a username & password to access the proxy add the following to the ~/.bashrc

    export http_proxy=http://<username>:<password>@<proxy>:<port>/
