Dear All,
I was wondering if anyone could help with this. I have modified the webproxy script with the securewebproxy command but when I try to run it, I get a response of "command not found". If I run the command in a terminal screen of "networksetup -setsecurewebproxy Ethernet 192.168.43.171 8080" it works fine

This is the script I am using .... please help

# NAME
# setSecureWebProxy.sh -- Configure a web proxy for a specified network interface
#
# SYNOPSIS
# sudo setSecureWebProxy.sh
# sudo setSecureWebProxy.sh <mountPoint> <computerName> <currentUsername> <networkInterface>
# <proxyAddress> <port> #
# If the $networkInterface parameter is specified (parameter 4), this is the Network Interface for
# which the search domains will be set. The expected values for the $networkInterface parameter can
# be found by running the command:
#
# networksetup -listallnetworkservices
#
# If the $proxyAddress parameter is specified (parameter 5), this is the proxy address that will
# be set.
#
# If the $port parameter is specified (parameter 6), this is the port to which the proxy traffic
# be passed.
#
# If no parameters are specified for parameters 4, 5 or 6, the hardcoded value in the script will be # used.
#
# DESCRIPTION
# This script will configure the web proxy on the specified network interface.

Just for giggles, can you run this and post back what it returns...

networksetup -listallnetworkservices

yeah, what are you getting when you list the services? the only possible avenue of failure I can see here is if you're running this on a machine that doesn't have a built in ethernet port, and therefore 'Ethernet' isn't a valid service.
I use the same commands to set proxies in my imaging procedure, but I've got every possible wired ethernet port name (i.e. Ethernet, Display Ethernet, USB Ethernet, and Thunderbolt Ethernet) in there with tests to see which are present on the system being imaged.

Prefix your command with:

ethernet=networksetup -listallnetworkservices | grep "Ethernet"

Then in the command, substitute $ethernet for "Ethernet" so whatever name is found above will be inserted. If you want to get resilient, check whether $ethernet is not empty and only issue your command if it is not.
