I did already tried this, but without success, but I tried it again just to be sure, still without success.
I tried to telnet the proxy with telnet tcp!host!port and it worked as expected ("GET http://www.google.com" printed its bloated html). This limit the issue boundaries to webfs (since, as far as I can see, hget is "just" a wrapper of it), since both squid and the tcp stack proved to work properly. The problem is, I can't figure out how to debug webfs. Any tip? Note that it worked once, a few days ago, when I managed to sysupdate (setting http_proxy.host in /usr/glenda/.hgrc).
