I am using Ubuntu 13.04 and having WiFi connection with proxy settings and authentication.
By following some tutorials I successfully changed /etc/apt/apt.conf
with the values
Acquire::http::proxy "http://username:p@[email protected]:800/";
Acquire::https::proxy "https://username:p@[email protected]:800/";
Acquire::ftp::proxy "ftp://username:p@[email protected]:800/";
Acquire::socks::proxy "socks://username:p@[email protected]:800/";
The problem is my password contains "@" character and I have tried everything to make it work,
- I tried
http://username:p\@[email protected]:800/
[escape character] - I tried
http://username:p%[email protected]:800/
[replacing with HTML-ised hex code] - I tried
http://username:p%40sswd%40192.168.0.0:800/
[same to the other @ also] - I tried
http://username:p@sswd%40192.168.0.0:800/
[same to the other @ only] - I tried
http://username:p\%[email protected]:800/
[escaping % character]
but none of the above worked. Please suggest me some way to make it work.
407 Authentication required
error or something else?
