Firefox container proxy #8

Closed jogaman closed 3 years ago

I'm using both the deluge and qbtorrent images (very happy with how well it works!). I have a question applies more to privoxy. I hope this is an ok place to ask this:

I can get privoxy working in Firefox if i set it up in settings by adding a proxy with 'manual' settings, but then all traffic goes through the proxy. I can't get it to work through the proxy containers plugin (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/container-proxy/). It would be amazing to be able to have proxy only for specific containers.

I'm suspecting this might have to do with privoxy being anonymous but container proxy needs name/password, perhaps?

many thanks

ps. I see how this question belongs in the forums instead - but it doesn't seem I can delete it..
