At office I have a freebsd 5.4 server to run postgresql. I'd like to update the ports in it from time to time but cvsup doesn't seem to work behind our proxy. In fact, in make.conf I have the following two lines: FETCH_ENV = HTTP_PROXY=http://user:password@proxy.com:8080 FETCH_ENV = FTP_PROXY=http://user:password@proxy.com:8080 which work smoothly when I compile a port via "make install clean" downloading the needed sources BUT they seem to be useless when cvsup is used. No way of reaching the cvsup server because unknown (is the same I use succesfully at home with an adsl connection!)! Is there another alternative way of defining the proxy OR any other way of getting a new source three to be copied to the server, e.g., by means of a cd burnt at home? Thanks Vittorio
