ActiveState has some documentation on this at their site, but the
environment variable you are probably looking for is HTTP_PROXY.  Set it to
the proxy server you use.  I used to have to do this at my last job.

Subject: need help with PPM

Dear friends,
 
I started exploring Activestate Perl very recently. And I wanted to
install
some modules. So I gave the command PPM Search to look for the modules
available. But then I get an error message saying there is difficulty in
connecting to the URL. I guess i know what the problem is. It could be
because we have a Proxy server. So what changes should i do to acheive
ppm
search successully. If i need to make changes in the environment
variables
(which environment variables are we talking about) how do i do it  ??
 
I am working on a Windows NT 4.0. Please help me, i feel completely
stuck.
 
TIA,
Cheers,
manoj
