You can't imagine like our admins... try to imagine http being blocked, because that's it. SVN (and all the other git, mercurial, ...) work only through https. [OT: begin] As a bonus, our proxy runs a huge regular expression on the URLs to filter out whatever seems to be suspect. For example, the domain download.microsoft.com is filtered out, like anything social network, image share network, needless to say any URL that contains sexual content. For example I cannot download http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/resources_extract.html because the zip file has no underline, so that you get resourceSEXtract. The same is true for a URL that contained "DocumentsExplorer" .... can you spot the sex in it ?? :-( [end;] > > Regards, > - Graeme - > > -- > fpGUI Toolkit - a cross-platform GUI toolkit using Free Pascal > http://fpgui.sourceforge.net/ > > > -- > _______________________________________________ > Lazarus mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus > -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list [email protected] http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
