Most Linux applications that might need to use a proxy will respect the
http_proxy environment variable.
What happens if you run (from the command line):
export http_proxy='http://name:abc@xxxxxxxxxxxxx:8080'
synaptic
You may be able to set this in /etc/apt.conf. I run x86_64, which apt
doesn't understand, so I can't test this.
Similarly, I can't tell whether you'd have to be root to try the above.
Hope this helps,
James.
