Dependencies, and plugins in this case, should download automagically,
as you suspected. It certainly seems like something is amiss with
your configuration. My first guess would be that Maven is having
trouble connecting to the http://www.ibiblio.org/maven2/ site (which I
just noticed is redirecting to
http://mirrors.ibiblio.org/pub/mirrors/maven2/) to download the POMs
and JARs.
Are you perhaps behind a proxy server, and if so is it configured in
your settings.xml file (more manual configuration, I'm afraid!). On
Windows you would want a file:
C:\Documents and Settings\<your userid>\.m2\settings.xml
With something like the following (note, I'm not behind a proxy, so
I've never had to actually use this!):
<settings>
<proxies>
<proxy>
<id>myproxy</id>
<active>true</active>
<protocol>http</protocol>
<username>proxyuser</username>
<password>proxypass</password>
<host>proxy.host.net</host>
<port>80</port>
<nonProxyHosts>local.net,some.host.com</nonProxyHosts>
</proxy>
</proxies>
</settings>
Fill in the username, password, host etc. with appropriate values for
your location.
