I'm coding a small application that connects to the Internet and retrieves information from my server using bsd socket. I looked at where the proxy settings are stored under Linux but i couldn't the file containing this information.I just want to find that file, so I can read the proxy settings from it and use these settings in my application.
Where are Proxy Settings Stored?
networking;internet;proxy
They're in the $http_proxy, $https_proxy and $ftp_proxy environment variables. Also, $no_proxy contains a comma-separated list of host patterns for which no proxy is used. For example:http_proxy=http://proxy.example.com:3128/no_proxy=localhost,127.0.0.1,*.example.com
