Hi, I hope this is the correct place for asking...
Recently I've set up a test server running OpenSolaris 2008.11. Internet access is possible only by using a proxy which sometime has its problems.
Eclipse or OpenOffice for example cannot be installed via the package manager GUI: The download always hangs after having fetched a few megabyte, then finally aborts with a message saying that the repository cannot be accessed and that I should check my network settings. When trying again, the download starts from the beginning and mostly stops at another position. I've seen the same behaviour also on smaller packages such as SUNWj6rt or SUNWgnu-idn.
I talked to one of our network guys, but he doesn't have an idea what's going on and what's causing the aborts. Perhaps some problems on the proxy and/or content filter, but he couldn't tell me.
Is it possible to fully download the packages in question from another machine not running OpenSolaris? If yes, how can this be done?
Regards Thorsten
