### Can I use rclone with an HTTP proxy? ###
Yes. rclone will use the environment variables `HTTP_PROXY`,
`HTTPS_PROXY` and `NO_PROXY`, similar to cURL and other programs.
Yes. rclone will follow the standard environment variables for
proxies, similar to cURL and other programs.
`HTTPS_PROXY` takes precedence over `HTTP_PROXY` for https requests.
In general the variables are called `http_proxy` (for services reached
over `http`) and `https_proxy` (for services reached over `https`). Most
public services will be using `https`, but you may wish to set both.
The environment values may be either a complete URL or a "host[:port]",
in which case the "http" scheme is assumed.
If you ever use `FTP` then you would need to set `ftp_proxy`.
The content of the variable is `protocol://server:port`. The protocol
value is the one used to talk to the proxy server, itself, and is commonly
either `http` or `socks5`.
Slightly annoyingly, there is no _standard_ for the name; some applications
may use `http_proxy` but another one `HTTP_PROXY`. The `Go` libraries
used by `rclone` will try both variations, but you may wish to set all
possibilities. So, on Linux, you may end up with code similar to
export http_proxy=http://proxyserver:12345
export https_proxy=$http_proxy
export HTTP_PROXY=$http_proxy
export HTTPS_PROXY=$http_proxy
The `NO_PROXY` allows you to disable the proxy for specific hosts.
Hosts must be comma separated, and can contain domains or parts.
For instance "foo.com" also matches "bar.foo.com".
e.g.
export no_proxy=localhost,127.0.0.0/8,my.host.name
export NO_PROXY=$no_proxy
### Rclone gives x509: failed to load system roots and no roots provided error ###
This means that `rclone` can't file the SSL root certificates. Likely
