I'd stay away from Archiva for now, until it gets a little more mature. From experience I suggest Proximity (I've used all 4... it's the most mature). Also, point your central repos to http://repo1.maven.org/maven2 ... that's the "official" central. Of course, it's not a bad thing to use mirrors, but ibiblio can get flaky.

Started with Maven1 or Maven2? I assume maven2, in which case your configuration (the default is for Maven 1) http://www.ibiblio.org/maven is wrong - it's http://www.ibiblio.org/maven2 and it's enough to throw off maven-proxy. Happened to me more than once. maven-proxy works fine for Maven2, but you may also consider the alternatives: proximity, artifactory and archiva.
