[pca] PCA Proxy Setup

[Timothy Hosfelt]

Martin – thanks for the help.  I didn’t have luck with the wgetopt, but it’s possibly because there is an @ in my password.  I was able to edit he wgetproxy url and put wgetproxy=https://username:password@url and was able to encode the @ sign – all is working as expected now.

    There are two options:
    
    Put the proxy settings into the global /etc/wgetrc file. Maybe the best 
    idea, as they will then be used for every usage of wget, system-wide.
    
    Use PCA's "wgetopt" option in pca-proxy.conf. Something like this might 
    work:
    
       wgetopt="--proxy-user=user --proxy-password=passwd"
    
    Hope that helps,
    
    Martin.
