How to get server out through work proxy
Hi,
I want to be able to get my server to update via yum through our work proxy.
I have tried the usual method of exporting the http_proxy=http://username
assword@domain.com but this does not work for me.
I opce heard about a guy who set up a proxy on his XP laptop (Don't flame me I have no choice) and had the linux server use his machine as a proxy which in turn resolved all requests against the company proxy under his XP logon.
Do any of you know any software that is simple which would do this?
Thanks

corkscrew(1) Networking corkscrew(1)
NAME
corkscrew - Tunnel TCP connections through HTTP proxies
SYNOPSIS
corkscrew PROXY PROXYPORT TARGETHOST TARGETPORT [AUTH_FILE]
DESCRIPTION
corkscrew is a simple tool to tunnel TCP connections through an HTTP proxy supporting the CONNECT method. It reads stdin and writes to std-
out during the connection, just like netcat. It can be used for instance to connect to an SSH server running on a remote 443 port through a
strict HTTPS proxy.
PROXY
The name of the host running the HTTP proxy.
PROXYPORT
The port on which to connect on the proxy.
TARGET
The host to reach through the proxy.
TARGETPORT
The port to connect to on the target host.
AUTH_ FILE
The auth file is made of one single line containing your username and password in the form
username:password
OPTIONS
None.
EXAMPLES
The common usage of corkscrew is to put the following line in ~/.ssh/ssh_config:
ProxyCommand corkscrew proxy proxyport %h %p [<path to auth_file>]
This will let the ssh connection go through the proxy with the help of corkscrew.
ENVIRONMENT
None.
FILES
None.
SEE ALSO
ssh_config(5)
