How can I report a bug in the Linux client?
netstat says:
10.0.8.2:45176 65.254.110.245:8080 SYN_SENT 980/FAHClient
This means that environment variables like https_proxy or HTTPS_PROXY are ignored.

FAHClient might not respond to environment variables like HTTPS_PROXY, but that's not really a "bug". It's just the lack of a feature.
There are, however, client options for using an HTTP proxy:
Code: Select all
Network:
proxy <string=>
Set proxy for outgoing HTTP connections
proxy-enable <boolean=false>
Enable proxy configuration
proxy-pass <string=>
Set password for proxy connections
proxy-user <string=>
Set user name for proxy connections
The configuration window in FAHControl ("Advanced Control") says this in reference to the built-in proxy support:
FAHControl wrote:
The Folding@Home client currently only supports basic and digest authentication. Specifically NTLM, SOCKS, and SSL/TLS proxies are not supported.
If you want to use other proxy types like SOCKS, perhaps look into something like tsocks or proxychains.
