Maven requires access to a remote repository. If your firewall prevents this you'll need to setup a local one. Information for this can be found spread around the maven documentation and "Better Builds with Maven" guide.

I just finished downloading maven 2 and am now trying to create a new project using the example described on the getting started page. I am able to execute mvn -version with no problems, however when I attempt to execute mvn archetype:create -DgroupId=com.mycompany.app -DartifactId=my-app I get the following error: [INFO] Scanning for projects...
