# Proxy settings for Kwartz clients #

To enjoy a Kwartz network, its clients should set proxy parameters
to be able to access Internet. With Firefox its is enough to activate
automatic proxy detection. For other software, this is done by other
means.

## For quite all applications in Debian ##
Most network applications honor the shell variable `http_proxy`, so
this can be set to a useful value, in a shell sript under
`/etc/profile.d/`: so any command-line issued for a terminal can use
the right environment.

## For apt ##
Apt tools can be launched by applications which ignore shells; then
the configuration must be inside the directory `/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/`

## For wget ##
Wget considers the content of the file `/etc/wgetrc`
