# Configuring your proxy server for FreeGuide on Linux

If you have a proxy server or are behind a firewall, you may need to follow the instructions below to allow FreeGuide to see past them to the Internet.

NOTE: most home users will NOT need to do this - you are ready to start FreeGuide! Go straight to the User Guide.

Add 2 lines to the file ~/.bash_profile:

    export http_proxy=http://example.com:8080
    export FREEGUIDE_OPTS=-DproxySet=true -DproxyHost=http://example.com -DproxyPort=8080

Replace "example.com" with your proxy server address, and "8080" with the port it uses.
