Users who utilize a network proxy need to add a <proxies> section to settings.xml:

<proxies>
<proxy>
<active>true</active>
<protocol>http</protocol>
<host>www.your.proxy.host</host>
<port>80</port>
<username>your_username</username>
<password>your_password</password>
<nonProxyHosts>localhost</nonProxyHosts>
</proxy>
</proxies>

(info) If you do not use a username or password for your proxy exclude the <username> and <password> elements. You only need the nonProxyHosts option if you have a local maven repo that does not require the proxy to be accessed. Maven 2.0 does not support Microsoft's NTLN authentification scheme. If you connect to a proxy like ISA you will need to use a tool such as http://ntlmaps.sourceforge.net/ to proxy your traffic.
