    <thetext>Surprisingly our proxy documentation is still quite poor. The FAQ section of the ref manual talks about setting SOCKS_SERVER, but none of our current scripts actually read that.

We have provided scripts/oe-git-proxy for git proxying for a while now, so our documentation should describe how to use it. I have updated the following wiki page (which was also out-of-date) to cover it:

    <thetext>Waiting for Henry&apos;s resolution to the wiki page on this... then I will adapt for the YP doc set.

    <thetext>Hi, 

Here are some areas that have been updated.  Please look these changes over and comment.

 * http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/2.1/ref-manual/ref-manual.html#var-DL_DIR - I added a cross-reference to this variable description so the reader can get to the wiki page easily.

* I updated the FAQ entry that talks about being behind a firewall and things are not working, which is section 14.12 titled &quot;I&apos;m behind a firewall and need to use a proxy server. How do I do that?&quot;  (see http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/2.1/ref-manual/ref-manual.html#i-am-behind-a-firewall-and-need-to-use-a-proxy-server).  Please look these changes over.  

* The only other real reference to working behind a firewall is another FAQ entry in section 14.22 titled &quot;How does the OpenEmbedded build system obtain source code and will it work behind my firewall or proxy server?&quot;  (see http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/2.1/ref-manual/ref-manual.html#how-does-the-yocto-project-obtain-source-code-and-will-it-work-behind-my-firewall-or-proxy-server).  I did not make changes to this section.  You might want to read it over.

Thanks, 
Scott</thetext>
