You may need to use your proxy, and you (seem to) need to\nset the environment variable 'http_proxy=\"http://10.0.0.1:3128\"' to\npoint to your proxy.

I suppose they reconfigured the firewall recently as I never\nhad to set that before and I've tracked git through http for over a\nyear.  I ended up setting `http.proxy` in ~/.gitconfig.\n\nThanks!\n\n-- \n\nIn Christ,\n\nTimmy V.\n\nhttp://burningones.com/\nhttp://five.sentenc.es/ - Spend less time on e-mail\n"}]}
