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
