After trying many tutorials to configure my Ubuntu 16 04 LTS behind a authenticated proxy  it worked with these steps   Edit  etc wgetrc     sudo nano  etc wgetrc   Uncomment these lines    https proxy   http   proxy yoyodyne com 18023   http proxy   http   proxy yoyodyne com 18023   ftp proxy   http   proxy yoyodyne com 18023   use proxy   on   Change http   proxy yoyodyne com 18023  to http   username password domain port      IMPORTANT  If it still doesn t work  check if your password has special characters  such as           If this is the case  escape them  for example  replace passw rd with passw 40rd

If you need to execute wget just once with the proxy  the easiest way is to do it with a one-liner like this   http proxy http   username password proxy host proxy port wget http   fileurl   or with an https target URL   https proxy http   username password proxy host proxy port wget https   fileurl

In Debian Linux wget can be configured to use a proxy both via environment variables and via wgetrc  In both cases the variable names to be used for HTTP and HTTPS connections are   http proxy hostname or IP portNumber https proxy hostname or IP portNumber   Note that the file  etc wgetrc takes precedence over the environment variables  hence if your system has a proxy configured there and you try to use the environment variables  they would seem to have no effect
