Hello everyone,

Just migrated from Linux to FreeBSD both at home and at work.

Love the OS.

Only one major problem,:

Since at work we have a firewall, we must use the proxy server to connect, so of course the cvsup does not work and I not only can not upgrade the entire ports collections, but also when trying to download a package manually and puti in the /usr/ports/disfiles/, most of the pakages are new and cvsup reports that can not find the package.

So I modify the makefile. and it may work.

but can any one let me know, how i can get the cvsup to work through the firewall?


Thank you all.

Sina
