proxy settings for various clients - some very old notes
# shell
A possibly related setting is the FTP_PASSIVE_MODE=yes in dotfiles.
Not to be confused with FTP_PASSIVE=on for Net::FTP configuration
# git
git config --global https.proxy https://user:password@address:port
# also can use NTLM Authorization Proxy Server (NTLMAPS) (zip file is in my email archive)
