Proxy Settings[edit]

Setting GNOME 3 application wide proxy for improved Stream Isolation so far failed. Some notes.

## install tools
apt install gconf2

## sources:
## https://developer.gnome.org/ProxyConfiguration/

## gsettings as root
## thanks to https://stackoverflow.com/questions/10374520/gsettings-with-cron
## not sure if using gsettings as root means system wide here
sessionfile=`find "${HOME}/.dbus/session-bus/" -type f`
export `grep "DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS" "${sessionfile}" | sed '/^#/d'`

## list proxy settings
gsettings list-recursively org.gnome.system.proxy

## set socks proxy settings
gsettings set org.gnome.system.proxy.socks host "10.152.152.10"
gsettings set org.gnome.system.proxy.socks port "9159"
