For convenience, you can set those variables from within /etc/make.conf: FETCH_ENV=3D FTP_PROXY=3Dhttp://username:password@proxy.example.com:3= 128/ \ HTTP_PROXY=3Dhttp://username:password@proxy.example.com:31= 28/ You can also use the HTTP_PROXY_AUTH variable where: HTTP_PROXY=3Dhttp://proxy.example.com:3128/ HTTP_PROXY_AUTH=3Dbasic:*:username:password is equivalent to the previous HTTP_PROXY setting. In theory that can let you use other HTTP authorization schemes than basic auth, except that support for those other schemes has not yet been added to libfetch.
