Hello, I need to plug my company laptop in to different networks many of which make use of some sort of proxy for accessing the internet. And every time I face this challenge of changing connection settings of different applications in many places. This is of course very inconvenient. What I would like to be able to do is to change the connection settings regarding a proxy in one place and have it affect all my applications. Something like one can do in MS Windows via Internet Options (configuring proxy access). I checked our otherwise great Handbook but failed to find something covering this scenario. And I'm surprised as I expect this to be a rather common need. Have I missed something ? Could someone point me to any article covering my need please ? TIA, Martin PS: Yes, I tried to google for this but I wasn't successful or perhaps I just asked wrong questions. :(
