WinCVS over proxy

Anyone know if it is possible to configure WinCVS to use a proxy? I would realy like to nab the latest HEAD while at work.

I'm not so sure WinCVS1.2 can handle proxies, though... you'll be better off with WinCVS1.3, I think...

I'm using wincvs 1.2 connecting with a proxy at work with a firewall. It works fine. Hard to say what the problem would be for sure - damn computers :)

By the way, you could also try it via command line (in WinCVS or not) like this:
name of the web server proxy, proxyport is the port to connect to on
the proxy and port is the remote port to connect to. proxyport
defaults to 80 and port defaults to 2401.
- see www.cvshome.org/dev/patches/http
But anyhow, it doesn't work with OUR damn proxy... :-(

Yeah, I hate computers... ;-)By the way, you could also try it via command line (in WinCVS or not) like this:
cvs -d :pserver;proxy=www;proxyport=8080;port=443:me@there.somedomain:/somerepositorywhere proxy is the
name of the web server proxy, proxyport is the port to connect to on
the proxy and port is the remote port to connect to. proxyport
defaults to 80 and port defaults to 2401.

at least that is the error I get if I try it with our proxy... :-(

The important thing is that your proxy has to support http tunnelling to be able to use CVS through a proxy...at least that is the error I get if I try it with our proxy... :-(
