http://docs.python.org/library/urllib.html : The urlopen() function works transparently with proxies which do not require authentication. In a Unix or Windows environment, set the http_proxy, or ftp_proxy environment variables to a URL that identifies the proxy server before starting the Python interpreter. For example (the '%' is the command prompt): % http_proxy="http://www.someproxy.com:3128"; % export http_proxy % python Replace 'someproxy' with your real settings. The last python would be 'sage -upgrade' in your case. I advise adding a trailing slash ("/") to the http_proxy setting. I have seen apps fail due to it not being there. regards, Jan -- .~. /V\ Jan Groenewald /( )\ www.aims.ac.za ^^-^^ -- To post to this group, send email to [email protected] To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [email protected] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-support URL: http://www.sagemath.org
