Chapter 3. Red Hat Network Notification Tool

Figure 3-2. HTTP Proxy Configuration

If your network connection requires you to use an HTTP Proxy Server to make HTTP connec-

tions, on the

Proxy Configuration

screen, type your proxy server in the text field with the format

http://HOST:PORT. For example, to use the proxy server http://squid.mysite.org on port 3128, enter

http://squid.mysite.org:3128

in the text field. Additionally, if your proxy server requires

a username and password, select the

Use Authentication

option and enter your username and pass-

word in the respective text fields.

Tip

To run the configuration wizard again, right-click on the applet, and select

Configuration

Your preferences are written to the file

.rhn-applet.conf

in your home directory.

The

Red Hat Network Notification Tool

also uses the system-wide configuration file

/etc/sysconfig/rhn/rhn-applet

. Do not modify the system-wide configuration file; it is

automatically generated by the application.
You can also configure the

Red Hat Network Notification Tool

not to list specific packages. To

configure which packages to ignore, click on the applet, and select the

Ignored Packages

tab.

3.2. Notification Icons

The applet displays a different icon, depending on the status of the updates. Refer to Table 3-1 for

details.
