Does your proxy server require authentication? If so, you need to specify authorization parameters as outlined in man fetch(3). > setenv FTP_PROXY ftp://10.0.1.1:3128 > setenv FTP_PASSIVE_MODE ftp://10.0.1.1:3128 BTW, although FTP_PASSIVE_MODE is enabled by setting it to anything other than 'no', you probably want to set it to something logical like "YES" instead of just re-listing the proxy URL. :-) -- Sahil Tandon <sahil@tandon.net>
