I'm trying to setup our test systems to access the IBM etc opensource repositories.
I need the system to go through our companies proxy servers and I need to perform these steps:
export https_proxy=<our proxy server>
export http_proxy=<our proxy server>
export no_proxy=<our company domain>
When I run these and I try a wget --spider http://public.dhe.ibm.com/software/ibmi/ it works as expected however, if I exit out of QShell and back in again, it no longer works (connection times out) and I have to do the exports again. I'm not sure what's happening as I thought exports were supposed to make things global so can't fathom why the information is not being retained? I have tried this with STRQSH and CALL QP2TERM. I have also tried doing the export command from putty but that is evern more bizarre as it is returning errors such as: https_proxy=<out proxy server> is not an identifier. Even an export -p produces the same error (-p: is not an identifier) which is rather odd.
Am I doing something obviously silly?
