Hi all,

I'm having a problem, using ppm3 over a HTTP proxy that requires
authentication:

If I set these environment var's
HTTP_proxy
HTTP_proxy_user
HTTP_proxy_pass
I can 'search' the Active Repository.

But when I want to install a package I get this nasty error message:

Error: error downloading '<path to the tar.gz file>': 407 Proxy-Auth

Can anybody explain me the reason, why search-ing works, while install-ing doesn't?
Is there a solution (other than downloading the files via a browser and creating a
local repository)?

Thanks and regards,
