With that in mind, I would suggest simply doing a putenv(3C) of the HTTP_PROXY variable and not passing the proxy value to the transfer module. auto_parse.c: line 453: remove the bit about accessing the IPS repo since this proxy could be used for other purposes as well. With the changes to auto_install.c, no changes should be needed to the transfer module. Could you please also add the relevant information to the AI design doc? It lives in the hg.opensolaris.org/hg/caiman/caiman-docs repository. I'm assuming you tested these changes, am I correct? Thanks for doing this work, Alok
