Running Ubuntu 11.10.
gnome-control-center:
Installed: 1:3.2.0-0ubuntu6
Candidate: 1:3.2.0-0ubuntu6
Version table:
*** 1:3.2.0-0ubuntu6 0
500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric/main amd64 Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
The new GUI doesn't correctly toggle gconf/system/http_proxy/use_http_proxy to true when only a socks server is specified. Without this, neither Chrome nor Firefox will attempt to tunnel through socks. As a workaround, set this value manually using gconf-editor.
Reproduce by setting up a socks server using the standard ssh -D <port> <user>@<remote_machine>. Attempt to configure the system-wide proxy by entering <remote_machine> and <port> into the new 11.10 proxy configuration utility's socks server fields. Open Chrome or Firefox and change the app's proxy settings to "use system". Notice that no HTTP traffic tunnels through the system socks proxy.
Somewhat related: the ignored hosts list is very useful for users on corporate networks where they do need some internal resources. It should be included. |
