In the manpage I find ftp_proxy proxy host for ftp requests http_proxy proxy host for http requests proxy_user username for accessing an authenticating proxy proxy_pass password for accessing an authenticating proxy I'm pretty sure that when you just say cpan> o conf init /proxy/ that then you are asked all the questions with a bit of information in the dialog itself. If this is not enough, read the section in the FAQ about firewalls. The FAQ is part of the manpage. If this still is not enough, please ask again and let us know which problems you encountered. -- andreas
