Hello everybody,

I just started  to use Maven and m2eclipse on Indigo. It works well in my
preferred environment, OS X, but it doesn't in a Windows environment at
work. I get this message when creating a project with
maven-archetype-quickstart:

Could not resolve archetype
org.apache.maven.archetypes:maven-archetype-quickstart:RELEASE from any of
the configured repositories.
Could not resolve artifact
org.apache.maven.archetypes:maven-archetype-quickstart:pom:RELEASE
Failed to resolve version for
org.apache.maven.archetypes:maven-archetype-quickstart:pom:RELEASE: Could
not find metadata
org.apache.maven.archetypes:maven-archetype-quickstart/maven-metadata.xml in
local (D:\Documents and Settings\ex36672\.m2\repository)
Failed to resolve version for

not find metadata
org.apache.maven.archetypes:maven-archetype-quickstart/maven-metadata.xml in
local (D:\Documents and Settings\ex36672\.m2\repository)

What I also observe is that every time I try to create a Maven project, it
downloads the maven archetype plugin again, which seems to indicate a
problem in updating the local repository. I'm behind a firewall at work. I
configured Eclipse to go through the firewall (I was able to install
m2eclipse from eclipse.org), but it looks like there is a communication
problem with the Maven central repository.

Thanks in advance for any help.
