Eugene, Thanks for the continuing pain.
I did indeed try adding it into a settings.xml and doing it from the command line, below is my settings.xml (I assume it goes in <home>\.m2\repository\settings.xml ?) It did do something (downloaded /maven-install-plugin-2.1.jar and 2 poms) but it failed after that. maybe my command is wrong? ============================ settings.xml ============================ <settings xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/settings-1.0.0.xsd"> <localRepository>C:/Documents and Settings/Landcare/DingfelderA/.m2/repository</localRepository> <interactiveMode/> <usePluginRegistry>false</usePluginRegistry> <offline>false</offline> <pluginGroups/> <servers/> <mirrors/> <proxies> <proxy> <id>myproxy</id> <active>true</active> <protocol>http</protocol> <host>proxy.landcareresearch.co.nz</host> <port>8080</port> <username></username> <password></password> <nonProxyHosts>localhost|inet.sirtrack.com</nonProxyHosts> </proxy> </proxies> <profiles/> <activeProfiles/> </settings> ============================ cmd ============================ mvn install:install-file -Dfile=c:\dev\jars\comm-2.0.jar -DgroupId=common_java -DartifactId=common_java -Dversion=0.0.1 -Dpackaging=jar -DpomFile=C:\projects\common_java\pom.xml -DlocalRepositoryPath=<home>\.m2\repository ============================ results ============================ C:\WINDOWS>mvn install:install-file -Dfile=c:\dev\jars\comm-2.0.jar -DgroupId=common_java -DartifactId=common_java -Dversion=0.0.1 -Dpackaging=jar -DpomFile=C:\projects\common_java\pom.xml -DlocalRepositoryPath=<home>\.m2\repository [INFO] Scanning for projects...
