I'm having a problem with fetch and libfetch in 5.0, and (given that I currently have a bad cold), I'm hoping to get a cheap answer before I have to start crawling through code. In the 4.x days, I was able to set up an apache web proxy, and then export FTP_PASSIVE_MODE=YES and HTTP_PROXY=<thehostoftheproxy>:80, and then go to /usr/ports, and say, for instance "make all". Everything would then download correctly, and go on happily. Now, however, it appears that when I do this, the connection either times out, or I get a file with the right name, but the contents are an HTML document (wrapped to fit in 80 cols). <HTML><HEAD><META HTTP-EQUIV="REFRESH" CONTENT="0" URL="ftp://space.mit.edu/pub/davis/jed/v0.99/jed-B0.99-15.tar.gz">; </HEAD><BODY></BODY></HTML> I know the proxy is working, as my 4.x boxes still go through it happily. Anyone have any ideas if something has broken, or whether its pilot error? -Brian To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-qa" in the body of the message
