Hi,

I'm having a problem with Software Update. I'm behind a firewall but have
set up the proxy under Wondow>Preferences>Install/Update.

Under Help>Software Updates>Find and Install I create a new remote site,
name it and use the site as described by the projects web site.

It returns with:

Network connection problems encountered during search.
Unable to access
" http://download.eclipse.org/tools/gef/update-site/releases/s ite.xml".
Unable to access site:
" http://download.eclipse.org/tools/gef/update-site/releases/s ite.xml"
[Connection refused: connect]
Unable to access site:
" http://download.eclipse.org/tools/gef/update-site/releases/s ite.xml"
[Connection refused: connect]

Please help, there must be something I'm missing.

Con,

It still sounds like a firewall problem. If all else fails, download
the zip files directly and unzip them. Remember to run with -clean
after updating the configuration. And please redirect follow up
questions to the newcomers, platform, or gef newsgroup.
