Download plugin and proxy auth
Hello,

does anybody know how to pass proxy settings to download plugin (proxy name, port + username/password)? As I can read in this forum, a year ago download plugin didn't support proxy auth.

Thanks.

Quote from NSISdl readme:

NSISdl supports only basic configurations of proxies. It doesn't support
proxies which require authentication, automatic configuration script, etc.

Thanks.

And there's no way and no another plugin available? So I need to use external means like wget etc?

There might be command-line programs that allow for Proxy authentication... You should try Googling.
