Bug ID: 509961
Summary: Plasma ignoring it should not use proxy for FTP
despite "ftpProxy" environment variable is empty
Classification: I don't know
Product: kde
Version First unspecified
Reported In:
Platform: openSUSE
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: major
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
Reporter: rafael.linux.user at gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
On an Intranet that requires the use of an authenticated proxy to browse the
Internet, Plasma 6 ignores the fact that it should not use a PROXY for FTP,
even though the corresponding variable is left empty in Plasma's proxy
settings.
HTTP(S) browsing from all web browsers works correctly, respecting the
httpProxy and httpsProxy values. The browsers prompt for the username and
password.
However, when I try to access FTP servers from Dolphin or Krusader, Plasma
attempts to use the proxy and eventually fails; that is, it is ignoring
"NO_PROXY=".
This problem appeared with Plasma 6; it did not exist in Plasma 5.
It's not a problem with the system libraries, since I can access via the "ftp"
command from the console and it doesn't try to use the proxy. However, if I use
the "w3m" command to browse URLs with the http(s) protocol, it does ask for a
username and password.
I also add that the pcman-qt file manager accesses FTP servers perfectly
without any issues from trying to use a proxy.
I don't know under which hierarchy to place this bug since "kio-frameworks"
mentions "sftp" but not "ftp", that's why I'm putting it here.
EXPECTED RESULT
To no use proxy when using FTP protocol
