Not sure if this will help, but gems will traverse a proxy server if you tell it where to go by setting an environment variable like so:
http_proxy=http://win_username:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:port_number So for me it'd be something like: http_proxy=http://win_username:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:8080 I normally set that manually on a command line & then issue the appropriate gem command.
