Chromium like any browser that respects itself, you can use the System Proxy if we have to use one to navigate.
The problem comes when we use it in desktop environments like LXDE o Xfce, who do not have the option to use a Global Proxy. The use of proxy en Chromium it is as simple as putting in a terminal:
$ chromium-browser --proxy-server="servidor:puerto"
But it would be very tedious to have to do this every time we go sailing. Therefore the immediate solution is to edit the file: /usr/share/applications/chromium.desktop. We look for the line that says:
Exec=/usr/bin/chromium %U
And we replace it with:
Exec=/usr/bin/chromium --proxy-server="servidor:puerto"
That should be enough. We can also use Sock Proxy if we use the line:
chromium-browser --proxy-server="socks5://servidor:1080"
You can have much more information in this website.
Won't this be easier ?:
http://www.proxy4free.com
No idea, first because I don't have access, and secondly because it seems to me that we are talking about different things. What is proxy4free?
It is a site where you get many websites, you can classify them however you want, by country, domain, etc.
You click on the web disrections and they send you to another page in which you get a bar like that of a search engine, there you enter the web address and you are already with a proxy
I supposed, we are not talking about the same thing. Let me explain, if I don't use a proxy, I can't navigate. Businesses use it a lot, some are anonymous, but they use it. If I don't specify a proxy (mine that authenticates against my ISP's) I can't access the internet. Therefore, in case I have access, if I do not put a proxy, I cannot enter the site you are commenting on.
Ah, so the ones you use are not to maintain anonymity
No, not at all .. I'm talking about Cache Proxy, not Anonymous Proxies .. 😀
very good data, what happened to me changing proxy servers, this is great
Thanks, it has helped me, especially because I wanted to use it with socks5 from my University making a tunnel to my home.
Greetings!
I'll be testing it, but it sure goes!
I'm liking Manjaro Linux, it hurts that my bandwidth is so lousy (64 k / s) but a connection less than 1k / s
and in case you need to add a proxy exception for local addresses?
how would the thing be?
Fixed problem with proxy exception
Here's the thing (solution)
at the end of this line (custom)
chromium-browser –proxy-server = »http: // server: 1080 ″
add –no-proxy-server = »proxy exception»
it would look like this
chromium-browser% U –proxy-server = »http: // proxy: port» –no-proxy-server = localhost, *. domain.cu
in case it requires User and PASS it would be
chromium-browser% U –proxy-server = »http: // username: password @ proxy: port» –no-proxy-server = localhost, *. domain.cu
Very useful tutorial to configure the proxy cache or a vpn tunnel.
If we combine it with the use of anonymous private proxies we will be much safer, every day we have to get more serious to take care of privacy on the network.
A greeting.
