Proxy Settings - All Users Default... not working?

Hello,

I’m trying to apply some proxy settings, system wide, for all users on a domain joined RL9.6

In /etc/dconf/db/local.d/01-proxy-settings I applied the following settings:

[org/gnome/system/proxy]
mode=’manual’
ignore-hosts=[‘localhost’, ‘127.0.0.1’, ‘::1’]

[org/gnome/system/proxy/http]
host=’bob.proxy.net’
port=’1337’
use-same-proxy=‘true’

Then I applied dconf update and the settings are supposedly ingested…

If I do gsettings get org.gnome.system.proxy mode I get the output of ‘none’

It seems that the system-wide proxy settings are ignored at the user level?

I tried running gsettings reset-recursively org.gnome.system.proxy and to no avail, the mode still shows ‘none’ after supposedly resetting the values to default.

if I do dconf dump /org/gnome/system/proxy, I see all my settings are “applied” and dconf update doesn’t give me any syntax error either.

Now obviously, if I go to “Settings > network > proxy” and hand type my proxy settings, it is ingested and the whole world moves…

My issue that I’m working on a VM template and I want my proxy settings to be an enforced default for all current and new users.

Is there something I’m missing here? And yes, I have the proxy defined in /etc/environment, however some applications, like “Chromium” do not use the system variable for proxy….

My next step is workaround, essentially enforce a policy on chromium, but in a perfect world, I should be using the “environment” file and the “Settings” proxy segment…

Any suggestions would be much appreciated…
