Setup: The task is to remove all proxy settings. Now I came across a proxy.conf file at /root/http-proxy.conf that contains this (with different IP ):
[Service] Environment="HTTPS_PROXY=" Question: How can I figure out the corresponding service given the conf file? Assuming there is a service running that uses this conf file.
Notes: Because if there is a service using this file, there might be no need for that service anymore and I would like to remove both the service and the conf file.

I doubt that this file is being used by anything at all. But to confirm this, you can do the following:
- Looking for other configuration files referencing
/root/http-proxy.conf:
grep -Ri "/root/http-proxy.conf" /root/ grep -Ri "/root/http-proxy.conf" /etc/
- Looking for processes reading this file (probably won't find anything):
lsof | grep "/root/http-proxy.conf"
- Check if this variable is actually set:
env | grep "10.10.10.10:1234"
