There is proxy server support in Network.HTTP. Maybe we have to explicitly look for the environment variable http_proxy and tell Network.HTTP to use it. For what it's worth, with my University proxy server the 3001.1.0 (darcs) version of HTTP does not work, although the last released version 3001.0.4 does. Daniel McAllansmith has sent me a follow-up patch which makes the proxy stuff work again (attached), but it involves some yucky API modifications. Maybe you and Bjorn could work out a good strategy for dealing with this stuff. -- Eric Kow <http://www.nltg.brighton.ac.uk/home/Eric.Kow> PGP Key ID: 08AC04F9
