Hi all, I have been trying to get MacPorts to work within the network I help support. It is a fairly secure network, stringent firewalls and proxies, internal IP's NATted to external IP's, ftp traffic is passed through fine however. I have been able to get the selfupdate feature working by opening port 873 to rsync.darwinports.org and this function works fine now. My problem is that when I try to install an application all connections are unsuccessful. It will attempt to fetch from the correct site but the connection cannot be established, and hence no downloading occurs. I have tested the machine on a "vanilla" isp connection and MacPorts works fine. Is anyone able to tell me whether the connections made during the fetch command are on any particular port? Once I have completed my research I would be more than willing to write a FAQ pertaining to setting up MacPorts within a secure network. Thanks, Dave --- drob@demo.schoolzone.net.nz http://demo.schoolzone.net.nz/ -- -------------------------------------------------------------- This email was sent using Telecom SchoolZone. www.schoolzone.net.nz This email has been scanned for viruses by Telecom SchoolZone, but is not guaranteed to be virus-free. -------------------------------------------------------------- -- -------------------------------------------------------------- Sent from demo.schoolzone.net.nz
