Hi all, I used to connect internet via a proxy. Before update packages I wrote in R
Sys.putenv("http_proxy"="http://proxy3.redegov.sp.gov.br:80/") Nevertheless the way the connection is done has changed. For example, in the browser the proxy is not indicated and I have to give an username and a password to have access to internet. I read the FAQ and the help for download.file but I was not able to do updates. I tried Sys.putenv("http_proxy_user"="ask") Sys.putenv("http_proxy_user"="http://****:****") Well, I use R under both Windows XP and Linux Ubuntu. Thanks for any help.
