Greetings.

I'm having difficulty using wget with my company's proxy server. I have configured a .wgetrc file in /home/dsl, however when I try to use the wget from busybox, the connection does not seem to work as I eventually get the message:

wget: Unable to connect to remote host (---.---.---.---): Connection timed out

Below is my .wgetrc file

Code Sample
###

http_proxy = http://---.---.---.---:80/
proxy_user = *
proxy_password = *

passive_ftp = on

waitretry = 10



The IP address, username & password have been removed (funnily enough)

Any help appreciated.

No idea if the busybox wget even reads .wgetrc ...
but this solution may be better:

Thanks for that. It would appear that the .wgetrc file is useless for this sort of thing. The environment variables worked. Helps if I look around more.
