RE: Setting up proxy
sorry, forgot to reply to all: the first one is for bash, sh and others of the same family, the second is for csh and others. You can do the same thing for ftp: export FTP_PROXY=http://user:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:3128 # for bash, sh setenv FTP_PROXY http://user:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:3128 # For csh, ...

The ports collection uses the fetch(1) tool for retrieving distfiles (i.e. source code) from the internet via HTTP or FTP protocols. If you need to use a proxy, add a line like this to your file /etc/make.conf (create it if it doesn't exist yet): FETCH_ENV= HTTP_PROXY=http://your.proxy.name:port/ You have to use the right hostname and port number of the proxy, of course, for example: FETCH_ENV= HTTP_PROXY=http://proxy.internal.net:3128/ You must use URL syntax for the proxy. 3128 is the default port if omitted. The HTTP_PROXY will also be used for FTP, unless FTP_PROXY is also set. So, if you need different proxies (or different ports) for FTP and HTTP, you need two lines, for example: FETCH_ENV= HTTP_PROXY=http://http-proxy.internal.net:3128/ FETCH_ENV+= FTP_PROXY=http://ftp-proxy.internal.net:3129/ (Note the += on the second line.)

Re: Setting up proxy
fetch will also use the default proxy that is set by the HTTP_PROXY and FTP_PROXY enviroment variables.
