This really is a bit of a documentation bug, since the examples in /etc/defaults/make.conf are misleading. Use FETCH_ENV= HTTP_PROXY=http://192.168.8.1:3128 in order to have fetch utilize a http-proxy running on 192.168.8.1, port 3128 for example. If you want fetch to use your http-proxy for ftp-tranfers, too, you don't need to specify FTP_PROXY, since fetch defaults to use a given http-proxy for ftp. If you want to use an actual ftp-proxy, use a line like FETCH_ENV= HTTP_PROXY=http://192.168.8.1:3128 \\ FTP_PROXY=10.0.0.1:21 or for a different http-proxy for ftp-transfers use something like FETCH_ENV= HTTP_PROXY=http://192.168.8.1:3128 \\ FTP_PROXY=http://10.0.0.1:3128 (remove line breaks and \\'s) -- Michael Nottebrock To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
