The solution I found (because I did not know the /etc/make.conf solution) was to give the proxy data like this : links2 -http-proxy http://blah.com:3128; you_url and when links2 launch, it open a dialog box (in text mode ;-)) to ask you for the username and password. That's the only way I found to download the stages, and now, I LOVE Gentoo ;-) Best regards Etienne -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
[gentoo-user] (Newbie)Emerge Problem
Hi I am having problems with emerge working during installation. I have Pentium4 with HT PC, and tried to install gentoo-2005 twice, eveything was fine ,hardware was easily detected, but network did not work well with proxies. I did $export http_proxy=http://spsingh:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:3128 but links2, emerge do not work. they give error 407 Authentication required, that is connects to proxy server but cannot authenticate me. However I can links2 to internal webpages which do not require proxy. More on this, I am currently running ubuntu, when I do the same thing in it, wget does not work but apt-get works. To get wget to work I have to do in addition to exporting is wget --proxy-user=spsingh --proxy-passwd=passwd http://whatever.whatever Please help me. I wish so much to try gentoo out. Is there a way to check if emerge works without having to go through half of installation so that I do not have to waste time again. Thanks

Hi sorry for my mistake in typing the email the thing was in quote. It is not a problem of it being wrongly written since it connects to proxy server but does not authenticate it.On 12/24/05, Bob Sanders [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:On Sat, 24 Dec 2005 19:49:49 +0530Sumeet Pal Singh [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi I am having problems with emerge working during installation.
