Also, from http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Download_Cache_for_LAN-Http-Replicator : Don't forget that portage needs mirrors! Edit GENTOO_MIRRORS in /etc/make.conf to add more http mirrors and place any ftp mirrors LAST. The default mirrors in gentoo leave something to be desired Use mirrorselect if you need help in selecting mirrors. Which makes me think about the connection it was making earlier. For those who think they know the answer, or want to figure it out with the information in this thread, please stop reading now. The spoiler is given below. The first download location in GENTOO_MIRRORS was an ftp site (ftp://ftp.gtlib.cc.gatech.edu). Since portage is looking for an http_proxy, calling an ftp site simply connects to the ftp site. Moving the ftp site to the end of the mirror list made everything work. Or at least it appears to work now. I'll know more tomorrow when another update cycle takes place. Thanks for the help, Dale.
