Hi,
I'm behind a University proxy on port 80, and I can't seem to get Fink
to download through it. I use a proxy of "host-here.edu.au", port 8080,
which is set in the System Preferences and works okay for browsing the
web with Omniweb or IE, but 'wget' seems to be stumped by it:

We trust you have received the usual lecture from the local System
Administrator. It usually boils down to these two things:
#1) Respect the privacy of others.
#2) Think before you type.

The same results happen with fink instead of apt-get:
===============================================================
[pe-207:~] ken% fink fetch xfree86-base

Anyone have tips? Thanks.

p.s. - is there a *searchable* archive for this list? The Geocrawler
archive doesn't seem to have a searcher, so I couldn't research this
properly.
