On a pentium box with FreeBSD 5.3 stable behind a proxy which needs authentication I'm able to download the ports I need & compile them. To do so, you correctly suggested in this ML to put the following lines in /etc/make.conf
FETCH_ENV= FTP_PROXY=http://myuser:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:8080 FETCH_ENV= HTTP_PROXY=http://myuser:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:8080 FETCH_ENV= FTP_PASSIVE_MODE=http://myuser:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:8080 Well they work. Unfortunately, when I issue the following command the anwer is as below VicBSD# cvsup -g -L 2 /root/ports-supfile Parsing supfile "/root/ports-supfile" Unknown host "cvsup.it.FreeBSD.org" (BTW, in /etc/resolv.conf there are the right DNS IPs) I have read the docs which say that cvsup uses the same definition for proxies of fetch. What should I do?
