Hello and thanks for your answers. Brett, I tried with -U but got the same error as before. I guess the bug you are talking about is the issue reported in JIRA as MNG-1489, right? As I understand it, that issue is just about giving a better error message if Maven can't find the repository. But the problem remains: either Maven2 can't get through the firewall with the settings I'm using (which is strange since I can get through with the exact same settings with Maven 1.0.2), or it DOES get through but the archetype-plugin isn't recognized correctly in the iBiblio repository.
Saravanan, your workaround seems to use Maven 1.0.2, I'm using Maven2 which is using completely other kinds of jar-files from another repository. I'm thinking that perhaps I should put some more/other options in my settings.xml file, but can't figure out which ones. Issue MNG-1447 talks about some different notions (http.proxyHost and http.proxyPort). What's with that?
