tsocks works perfectly! Thanks a ton! (was a little bit of a chicken and egg
problem since I need tsocks to use port install, but managed to get it done.)

Hi,
I'm behind a firewall but manage to access the internet via a socks proxy.
Since I can't use rsync either, I downloaded the ports tarball directly. I'm
trying to install ports now, but the fetching naturally fails. I assume it uses
curl? How can I ensure that curl uses socks? Am new to macp
