Here is how to set up a Ubuntu desktop (GUI) to use a proxy server:

How to Configure Ubuntu Desktop to use your proxy server

If you are looking to set proxy settings on a Ubuntu Server edition VM, you can enable it in a couple places for customized functionality:

Just Aptitude

gksudo nano /etc/apt/apt.conf:
Acquire::http::Proxy "http://yourproxyaddress:proxyport";

BASH rc method

This method adds a two lines to your .bashrc file in your $HOME directory. This method is useful if you would like apt-get and other applications for instance wget, to use a http-proxy.

gksudo nano ~/.bashrc

Add these lines to the bottom of your ~/.bashrc file (substitute your details for yourproxyaddress and proxyport)

http_proxy=http://yourproxyaddress:proxyport
export http_proxy

Save the file. Close your terminal window and then open another terminal window or source the ~/.bashrc file:

source ~/.bashrc

Test your proxy with sudo apt-get update and whatever networking tool you desire. You can use firestarter or conky to see active connections.

If you make a mistake and go back to edit the file again, you can close the terminal and reopen it or you can source ~/.bashrc as shown above.
