I am attempting to set the http_proxy environmental variable to a SOCKS 5 proxy server that is really an SSH tunnel to a server outside the network. When I execute the fetch command it is failing with this error message; bc007776# fetch -v ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/emacs/emacs-22.1.tar.gz looking up 127.0.0.1 connecting to 127.0.0.1:8080 requesting ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/emacs/emacs-22.1.tar.gz fetch: ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/emacs/emacs-22.1.tar.gz: Unknown error: 0 Is this supported? -- Mark Jacobs Technical Services Time Customer Service - Tampa, FL ------ "The secret of life is honesty and fair dealing.
