i installed FreeBSD 4.3 (i386) at work today.
when trying to make in /usr/ports/* it cannot connect to the ftp servers,
only to http ones.
our firewall doesnt allow fetch to do ftp. i tried to set it up to use our
ftp proxy but somehow didnt succeed. how exactly would be the setup for
fetch to use that proxy? or can it (like /stand/sysinstall) use a http
proxy instead?

thanks

wolfgang
