Inside a controlled network, it is alittle harder to use FreeBSD.
The simple things become hard, such as install software by pkg.
So that is why I set a local proxy server on FreeBSD in China.
For csh or tcsh, set proxy in /etc/csh.cshrc:
setenv HTTP_PROXY socks5://127.0.0.1:1080
setenv HTTPS_PROXY socks5://127.0.0.1:1080
For sh, set proxy in /etc/profile:
export HTTP_PROXY socks5://127.0.0.1:1080
export HTTPS_PROXY socks5://127.0.0.1:1080
For subversion, etc…
Add the following to ~/.subversion/servers
http-proxy-host = socks5://127.0.0.1
http-proxy-port = 1080
