I'm trying to get a Trial of unRAID setup and it requires an internet connection. All of my internet traffic goes through a proxy.

 

How do I get unRAID setup to connect through a proxy server? (export https_proxy...)

Is there a service or config file I need to change somewhere?

I've asked as well, no help so far ?

The question was asked a couple of years ago:

 

 

I guess @RobJ's advice still applies.

Here's something to try.  Edit your 'config/go' file and change this line:

/usr/local/sbin/emhttp &

to:

http_proxy=http://proxyserver:port /usr/local/sbin/emhttp &

Of course substitute proxyserver:port with your actual proxy server/port URL.

 

If you need to specify a username/password, use:

http_proxy=http://username:password@proxyserver:port /usr/local/sbin/emhttp &

Again substituting your actual username:password.  Note: you have to url-encode username or password if it uses symbols (e.g. @ --> %40).

 

For https, use HTTPS_PROXY (all caps) instead.  It should be possible to specify both http_proxy and HTTPS_PROXY but everything has to be on the same line.

I'd like to know a workaround for 6.11 as well, thanks

I solved this finally , in download or check update in CA case, the dynamix plugin manage use wget to download file,

it seems http_proxy=http://username:password@proxyserver:port /usr/local/sbin/emhttp & can't effect it.

so ,the method is , create a new file .wgetrc in /root and the content is

use_proxy=yes
http_proxy=http://10.0.0.2:7890
https_proxy=http://10.0.0.2:7890
wait=10

, it works for me , on unraid 6.11.1.  @zestyboy

I have added my proxy in the 'go' file and I am able to CURL the .plg but get 'Network Error' everytime I try to install the plugin

Could you please confirm this is still the method for current version 6.12.3?

I created .wgetrc in root like so but this unfortunately didn't solve the issue (i have censored the proxy):
 

root@Unraid:/# cat /.wgetrc
use_proxy=yes
http_proxy=http://xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:8080
https_proxy=http://xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:8080
wait=10

 

I can also nslookup raw.githubusercontent.com without any issues on http and https

I have attached my diag for anyone to have a look, I have spent way to long on this

Any possibilities or experience using and configureing sock5 proxy as defualt connection preference?
