Apt-Get Proxy Settings

I needed to tell apt-get to use a specific proxy and here is what I found after some googling…

1. Go to /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/

2. Create a new file called “80proxy”

3. Put your proxy information in said file in the following format:

Acquire::http::proxy “http://proxy.domain.com:port/”;

Acquire::https::proxy “http://proxy.domain.com:port/”;

Acquire::ftp::proxy “http://proxy.domain.com:port/”;
