The quick and dirty approach on Linux ...

Note that in your case:
HTTP_PROXY_HOST and HTTPS_PROXY_HOST
HTTP_PROXY_PORT and HTTPS_PROXY_PORT
might respectively be the same.

Edit the Tracker launcher shell: /opt/tracker/tracker_proxy.sh
with the following content. Please replace the following as appropriate:
$HTTP_PROXY_HOST
$HTTP_PROXY_PORT
$HTTPS_PROXY_HOST
$HTTPS_PROXY_PORT


#!/bin/bash

export JAVA_HTTP_PROXY_OPTS="-Dhttp.proxyHost=$HTTP_PROXY_HOST -Dhttp.proxyPort=$HTTP_PROXY_PORT" ;

export JAVA_HTTPS_PROXY_OPTS="-Dhttps.proxyHost=$HTTPS_PROXY_HOST -Dhttps.proxyPort=$HTTPS_PROXY_PORT" ;

export TRACKER_HOME=/opt/tracker

echo $TRACKER_HOME/9.0.4-x64-jre/bin/java $JAVA_HTTP_PROXY_OPTS $JAVA_HTTPS_PROXY_OPTS -jar $TRACKER_HOME/tracker_starter.jar $*
