I'm using 6.1-RC built on Apr 18 but that problem was there even on
6.0-RELEASE
Are you using an HTTP proxy? The pre-6.1 series portsnap did not play
nicely with HTTP proxies. There were some patches committed in March or
so to address PR's on the subject. I haven't had an opportunity to test
the changes in my work environment (which requires HTTP proxy use) yet,
but they look promising.
Yech, sorry. What I meant to say was that portsnap didn't play nicely
with proxies *requiring authentication*. The patches should address
that, though I haven't tried them personally.
The way to specify auth information should be:
HTTP_PROXY=http://proxy.example.com:8080
HTTP_PROXY_AUTH=basic:*:<user>:<pwd>
(from man 3 fetch).
Thanks,
Marty
