Try putting in the following in /etc/make.conf

=46ETCH_ENV=3D =A0 =A0 =A0FTP_PROXY=3Dhttp://userid:passwd@myproxy.it:8080
=46ETCH_ENV=3D =A0 =A0 =A0HTTP_PROXY=3Dhttp://userid:passwd@myproxy.it:8080

To be honest, haven't tried it with authentication but the above would
be the correct way to make use of a proxy for ports.
