To change the application settings, select Preferences from the Settings menu. This opens the Preferences dialog.
The properties in the Proxy tab are:
Use proxy If this button is checked, files will be downloaded using a proxy server.
Username Enter the user name for the proxy server.
Password Enter the password for the proxy server.
HTTP Enter the host name or IP address of the proxy server to use for HTTP transfers.
FTP Enter the host name or IP address of the proxy server to use for FTP transfers.
The properties in the Auto tab are:
Interface to connect Enter the network interface to use for all transfers. This is typically ppp0 or eth0.
Check interface time This determines how often the network interface is checked for availability. When the interface becomes available, downloads will be automatically started if possible.
Simultaneous This determines the maximum number of automatic downloads which will be in progress at any given time. When this limit is reached, GTransferManager will wait for one of the currently running downloads to finish before starting a new one. You can still start more downloads manually if you want.
Manual stop disables auto download If this button is checked, manually stopping a URL transfer will set the disable auto download flag in the URL properties. This prevents the URL transfer from being automatically restarted.
After you have made all the changes you want, click on OK to apply the changes and close the Properties dialog. To cancel the changes and return to previous values, click the Cancel button.
