How do I make jigdo use my proxy?

Frequently Asked Questions
Edit ~/.jigdo-lite (or jigdo-lite-settings.txt for the Microsoft Windows version) into a text editor and find the line that starts with "wgetOpts". The following switches can be added to that line: e ftp_proxy=http://LOCAL-PROXY:PORT/ -e http_proxy=http://LOCAL-PROXY:PORT/ --proxy-user=USER --proxy-passwd=PASSWORD Of course, substitute the correct values for your proxy server. The last two options are only necessary if your proxy uses password authentication.

How do I use these ".jigdo" files?

Slamd64 FAQ - SlackWiki
Firstly, you need to install jigdo; a slamd64 package can be found on files.fredemmott.co.uk. You will then need to download the tarball of .jigdo, .template, and other files from the "Get Slamd64" page. Extract the tarball somewhere, and open a terminal, and 'cd' into the created directory. If you want to use a mirror other than ftp.heanet.ie, change the following lines in the .jigdo files: Mirror=ftp://ftp.heanet.ie/pub/slamd64/slamd64-current/ Mirror=ftp://ftp.heanet.

How do I make my bittorrent client use a proxy?

Trance music torrents / FAQ @ TranceRoute.com
Just configure Windows XP as above. When you configure a proxy for Internet Explorer you're actually configuring a proxy for all HTTP traffic (thank Microsoft and their "IE as part of the OS policy" ). On the other hand if you use another browser (Opera/Mozilla/Firefox) and configure a proxy there you'll be configuring a proxy just for that browser. Also, some BT clients have an option to configure proxy.

I already have a POP3 proxy so how can I use sb_server?

SpamBayes FAQ

The easiest solution is to leave your other proxy set up exactly as it was before SpamBayes. Then look in your email client to see what port it is using (it'll probably be connecting to "localhost" or "127.0.0.

Can I use jigdo to download images for DVD?

Frequently Asked Questions
Absolutely; the process is identical to downloading CD images. The only thing you need to do differently is to download the .jigdo and .template files for DVDs instead of CDs. You can find the DVD .jigdo and .template files at http://www.debian.org/CD/jigdo-cd/. Under MS Windows, you need to use jigdo-win-0.7.1a (released 21 July 2004) or later to create DVD-sized images. This is because of a bug in the large file support of Mingw32, the compiler used to create the MS Windows executables.

When should I use the proxy server or VPN?

VPN Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)-The Library-University ...
Most electronic resources are licensed by The Library from companies in business for profit. The terms of the contracts with these companies stipulate that The Library allow only UC faculty, students and staff to use these materials.

Can I restrict use of the proxy to a set of nominated IP addresses?

Internet Junkbuster Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, we added an access control file in Version 2.0. But before you use it please consider why you want to do it. If the reason is security, it probably means you need a firewall. The listen-address option provides a way of binding the proxy to a single IP address/port. The right way to do this is to choose a port inside your firewall, and deny access to it to those outside the firewall. The Internet Junkbuster is not a firewall proxy; it should not be expected to solve security problems.
