Apptainer: Document how to make containers access our proxy servers #145

Closed HenrikBengtsson closed 6 months ago

HenrikBengtsson commented 6 months ago

"The dev nodes access the internet via a proxy host. Make sure that your container imports the required proxy environment variable(s). You can see all the variables by running (in a normal shell) env | grep -i proxy."

Not needed; our *_proxy environment variables are already exported automatically, e.g.
