It's possible that from the central repo's perspective, all traffic from your company may seem like it's coming from one IP address because of NAT.
Using an internal mirror can help alleviate things. The most non-invasive mirror would be to rsync the central repo periodically and then modify internal DNS to point 'repo1.maven.org' to an internal IP address. You can save a lot of bandwidth and time this way. -Nathan -----Original Message----- From: 陈思淼 [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, September 26, 2008 10:47 AM To: Maven Users List Subject: Re: Are we blocked by central Maven repo? we didn't do that kind of thing. we have a company-level artifactory repository.someone didn't follow the rule but most of us are good citizen, and follow the maven RULE, Is maven block strategy to block IP too strict?
