I'm behind a proxy at work. When I try to ping google, it works.
When I try to wget, I got stuck on the "Connecting to [proxy name]". I tried both via the "google.com" adress and via the IP adress I got with the ping.
Every other command fails while trying to connect to the proxy. Other people around me don't have this issue. I triple checked the proxy adress/port.
I saw that this could be due to ipv6 use. I disabled it without success.
$ cat /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/all/disable_ipv6

My browser works well so I can surf, and I use another proxy at home, without issue this time.
I'm under Ubuntu 14.04
nmap
andservice iptables status
