Description

On systems with an upstream proxy configured lines are added to the crontab so commands run there see the appropriate environment variables.

Currently the proxy auth values are added on the same line:

[24.03-RELEASE][admin@plusdev-6.stevew.lan]/root: cat /etc/crontab 
#
# pfSense specific crontab entries
# Created: May 16, 2024, 9:39 pm
#
SHELL=/bin/sh
PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin
HTTP_PROXY=172.21.16.185:3128HTTP_PROXY_AUTH=basic:*:test:12345
*/1    *    *    *    *    root    /usr/sbin/newsyslog

Those variables should be on separate lines.

In addition there should be variables for CURL: HTTPS_PROXY at least.
