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
