If you don't know by now what SoaS stands for: Sugar on a Stick
HOW TO CONNECT TO THE INTERNET THROUGH SUGAR ON OUR SCHOOL PCs
Open Browse (it's a Sugar activity)
in the address bar type: about:config
In the Filter box type: proxy
Double click on the following and set these values:
network.proxy.http 10.60.184.54
network.proxy.http_port 8080
network.proxy.ssl 10.60.184.54
network.proxy.sll_port 8080
network.proxy.type 1
10.60.184.54 is the IP address of our school proxy server
Now try to connect to the internet
You should now be able to write your blogger blogs and play with Sugar at the same time.
Thanks to phoozle for help with this

Hello Bill,
ReplyDeleteYou can achieve the same thing by adding the following to a file called 'user.js' located in ~/.mozilla/firefox/
user_pref("network.proxy.http", "10.60.184.54");
user_pref("network.proxy.http_port", 8080);
user_pref("network.proxy.ssl", "10.60.184.54");
user_pref("network.proxy.ssl_port", 8080);
user_pref("network.proxy.type", 1);
This does the same thing as entering it via about:config, with the advantage of letting you set up the USB keys without having to boot them.
Change the 1 in network.proxy.type to 0 to disable the proxy settings for when you want to use the key outside of school.
