<P>If you use a proxy server or firewall, you might have trouble running PPM. Here is the
solution.</P>

<P><B><I>NOTE</I></B>: If none of the changes in this document work for you, you may
download individual packages from <A href="http://www.activestate.com/packages/zips">here</A>
and install them according to the directions in the README file contained within the ZIP
file. If you want, you can also keep a local repository, with several .ppd files in a
permanent repository directory, and their .tar.gz files in an <I>x86</I> directory beneath
that.</P>

<P><STRONG>Under Windows NT<BR>

<LI>Add the setting HTTP_proxy, with your proxy name as the value (<EM><STRONG>you must
include "http://" </STRONG></EM>), followed by a colon and the proxy port, if
applicable; e.g., "http://proxy:8080"</LI>
<LI>If you require a user name and/or password to access your proxy, add the settings
HTTP_proxy_user and HTTP_proxy_pass, with your user name and password as the respective
values</LI>

<BLOCKQUOTE>
<P>With your internet connection active, try using PPM again. Try to install a small
package, like File-Slurp. You'll know that it still fails if you see an error stating that
it can't find a ppd file for the specified package.
