Hi all,

I’ve got Fossil listening to a non-standard port on a server somewhere (http://domain.com:8080/repo). From within our office’s network, I can’t directly connect to outside URLs on nonstandard ports (i.e. other than 80 for http, or 443 for https). Fortunately, we do have a proxy server, which does allow this.

When I tried syncing the repository using a direct connection, fossil times out and fails (as expected).

Server:    http://[email protected]:8080/repo
                Bytes      Cards Artifacts     Deltas
Sent:            5385        115 0          0
C:\MC\Run\Util\Console\fossil.exe: cannot connect to host domain.com:8080
    Total network traffic: 0 bytes sent, 0 bytes received

Then I did

    fossil set proxy fwdh2:8080

(since fwdh2:8080 is our network's proxy server), but now `fossil sync` gives the following error:

    Server:    http://[email protected]:8080/repo
    C:\MC\Run\Util\Console\fossil.exe: unknown repository: fwdh2:8080

Am I doing something wrong? If so, what should I do instead?
Or is Fossil somehow interpreting my proxy as a repository name? (Note that I’m running this command from the checkout directory; with `fossil set proxy off`, it tries to connect to the correct remote-url). Or is Fossil running into some other problem, and somehow displaying the wrong error message?

FYI: I’m using the official Windows release:
    This is fossil version 1.23 [957b17af58] 2012-08-08 11:25:57 UTC

Thanks for any info, hints or pointers!
