http proxy

Does the LivePC need http proxy configuration set somewhere? I am unable to use it and get the the folloing in the sys.log file:

Is the http_proxy settings in LivePC player 0.9.1 the same as 0.12.
I have made the suggest changes but, Im still unable to get HTTP working via a proxy.
content of the file?

Hi free2rss,
It'd be helpful if you could send the content of the file (with any password removed) so we could take a look at it and see why you cannot connect via proxy.
Just curious, why do you prefer to try out the bare metal version as opposed to Windows version? Are you doing a dual-boot?
Thank you for trying out the LivePC Engine!
Thanks,
-Gerald

HTTP proxy setting in Windows and Bare Metal
Proxies are supported by our application, but the setting is not yet exposed by our UI. Here's how to configure LivePC Player 0.12 to use an http proxy.
Find the directory "Application Data\moka5\LivePC Player\env" in your user profile (so that will probably be C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\Application Data\moka5\LivePC Player\env". In that directory create a flat text file called http_proxy. Make sure that the file is called http_proxy, not http_proxy.txt. The contents of this file should be of the form "PROXYHOST:PROXYPORT".
In the Bare Metal version, you can do the same thing by pressing F5 to bring up a debugging xterm. Use the directory "/cache/user/env", creating the directory if necessary. Put the http_proxy file into that directory.
