Hi
Is there any way to tell the ports "make install" to use an ftp proxy to
get installation files? At work I'm behind a firewall, and to do ftp
either have to do it manually through a gauntlet firewall gateway, or via
a webbrowser to go through the netscape proxy.
Also, the faster of the two connections I have available requires me to
put in a username and password - is there likely to be any
way of getting authenticated ftp proxy access to the ports installer?
cheers
jesse
ps, i'm not on the freebsd-questions list, so please reply directly to me,
thanks
