Hi All, I have been trying to solve the issue of Xen-based Virtual Machines (as I described earlier); I have the problem of ethernet ports locked to a single Mac address in my lab--hence VM''s can''t communicate using bridging other than their own dom0. To further test/confirm, yesterday I took my laptop at home and connected to my Home-Hub (which issues DHCP based IPs); I

Dear R users, I am using R Version 1.3.0 (2001-06-22) under Windows 2000 Professional (SP 2).

How can I get wine from git through a proxy server? I tried the usual clone command but substituting http:// for git://, set $http_proxy (per git man page) to the name of my proxy server and got: $ git clone http://source.winehq.org/git/wine.git wine Initialized empty Git repository in /cygdrive/d/wine/.git/ Cannot get remote repository information. Perhaps git-update-server-info needs to be run

This reminds me of a question I've never asked yet: Is there a trick to make this work when a username authentication is required for using the proxy? I need a user name and a password to connect to the Internet, and so I get: > version _ platform i386-pc-mingw32 arch x86 os Win32 system x86, Win32 status major

Hello everyone, I run R on Gentoo Linux and this week I upgraded R from 2.5.0 to 2.6.0. With the new build, I have stumbled upon an unpleasant problem: I can no longer install packages from CRAN through a transparent proxy. With the previous version, I simply added to /usr/lib/R/etc/Renviron the following line and it functioned like a charm: ## Proxy settings http_proxy="SERVER:3128"

Just installed R on a new machine which is on a server. I am trying to download packages but seem to have trouble with our proxy settings. I have read the 2.19 section in R for Windows and tried what was suggested (setting http_proxy) but that did not help (still cannot connect). I think my problem is that we do not have a fixed port but use instead autoproxy. Has anyone encountered this problem

I was trying to install R on a unix server. Because of a firewall i can't install biocLite for working with Bioconductor. With windows it wasn't a problem. I used the option '--internet2' to bypass the firewall. I don't have any idea, how to do it with unix. I tried to set my proxy >Sys.putenv("http_proxy"="http...:8080")

OK, I really am struggling with this one! Forgive me if I am being stupid.... I am running R 1.7.1 on Suse Linux 8.1.

Hi everyone, I've got stuck trying to get Sketchup 7 ( Version 7.1.6860 ) to connect to the 3D warehouse via a proxy using Wine 1.1.38 (same problem with older version 1.1.35) on a linux machine ( Gentoo, Kernel 2.6.32.3 ) I have followed the instructions for setting up a proxy for Wine from: http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#head-d582e2a4e92f4d8ae6c3401daebd7d5621eb220f ###### My

Hello All, I'm sure this must be a fairly quick and easy configuration, but I have not been able to figure it out yet. How do you configure the proxy settings in the OS itself (not in a browser or other application) so that anytime the server tries to get out to the internet, that it can direct its traffic to go through a proxy server? I tried putting the proxy settings in .bash_profile
