I had this work on an external machine, but it could very well
have been trying to go direct.
I have a couple http/ftp servers in my urllist in cpan. Trouble
is that when I try to access the cpan network, it tries to use
ftp and gets hung up waiting for a host timeout....after about
three ftp tries, it finally "falls back" to lynx. So what's
the point in defining ftp/http proxies. When it came up for
where's my ftp program, I tried entering both "", and '' (null
strings). Apparently it didn't "listen" to either attempt.
Shouldn't it skip ftp/http direct if proxies are defined?
Thanks,
