Subject:   cvsup through http proxy?
Message-ID:  <20000620004837.36750.qmail@hotmail.com>

next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
I installed FreeBSD 4.0-release at work today.  Unfortunately I am
behind a firewall & a proxy server that required a username/password.
I was able to get the ports collection working through the help of
"man fetch", and my new-found knowledge HTTP_PROXY, HTTP_PROXY_AUTH,
and FTP_PASSIVE_MODE.  Now, I know how to tell cvsup to use passive
mode, but I need ot know if its possible(and if so, how) to use it
through a proxy that requires a username/password(I would like to
update to 4.0-stable and 'sup the ports).

TIA,
~Harris
